Brother Broocks was a mentor to many members of Manchester Lodge No. 14. He was a ritual instructor, confidant and role model. He will be missed by the Lodge and all who knew him

To all the Broocks I extend my deepest sympathy on the passing of such a wonderful man and mason. He is now with his God and has heard the words, "Well done thy good and faithful service, enter now into the kingdom of God." Jim Shaffer

No words can truly confort when loosing such a treasure as I know Uncle Tom was. I have nothing but fond memories as a child in your home as Eddie and I went over on the phone tonight. I know he will be greatly missed. I so wish I could be there in person. Know my thoughts and prayers are with you my dear Aunt Bootsie, and also with T and Ronny and the rest of the family. God bless you all. From Tina "Broocks" Robinson.
