It was my great pleasure to have Mrs. Brooks as my teacher at Iola Frans. That was many years ago, but I still remember her kindness, her genuine interest in her students, and what a wonderful teacher she was. She made that school year very special, and welcomed my visits in later years. I loved her. My condolences and thoughts to your family.

Dear Sadie's family,
When I started at Flowing Wells School District in 1969, I had the privilege of being Sadie's classroom aide.
Sadie also taught my daughter when my daughter was in fifth grade. My daughter is now a teacher in the Flowing Wells School District.
Sadie was an amazing women and an amazing teacher.

You had such wonderful parents......I loved them too. Please know you have my condolences and prayers for you all. I have such good memories of much time spent with both your mom and dad. Your dad taught me how to upholster many years ago and your mom was such a good friend and listener. They were like 2nd parents to me and terrific models of how to do life. They loved my children so well. I look forward to seeing them again.

My sincere condolences for your loss. When we went to Coronado Baptist Church, Mrs. Brooks was like a mother and a very close friend to all. She was a wonderful lady. I lknow that she is walking with Jesus today and she will always be with us all in our hearts. I'll miss her.

Dear Brooks Family,
We have such fond memories of both your mom and dad. You were blessed with wonderful, Christian parents who are now reunited in Heaven. What a wonderful day it will be when we will be with them around the Throne.

Condolences to the family and the friends of Mrs. Brooks. May Jehovah God remember her in the Resurrection. I had Mrs. Brooks in fifth grade at Iola Frans 45 years ago, and she was always one of my favorite teachers. She was tough, fair, and it was my main ambition the year I was in her class, not to have her notice me unless it was with a smile. I remember in 1964-65 when she got the news to come to the office because her husband had been in an accident, and her asking everyone to join her in a minute of prayer before she left to go tend to him. In our ten year old minds, the idea that she at her age could call him her best friend was a surprise if not a shock. I will have a lot of good memories of her class, and for the family, I hope you know how much she meant to all of us she touched and how we send you our sympathies.
