Dear Tom, Will & Debbie and family, I was shocked to read of Brooke´s passing ... we extend our deepest sympathy for your loss. She was a dear friend for many years. Knowing she is in heaven with Tom helps the sadness. May you and yours be comforted in His peace. With our love, Linda& Kent Yoder

I am so sorry to hear of Brooke's passing. She and I spent one glorious summer, with several other young women, on the Isle of Palms. Some of my best memories. She and Tom had just started dating. Please know my sympathies are with each of you. Charlotte Murray
