My name is Ken Sedlak, a former Marine and Mr. Brook's guardian on an Honor Flight to Washington, D.C. To be associated with a World War II Veteran, and to be his guardian is an absolute honor and privilege. The WWII Vets are truly in a class all by themselves. They didn't just save the United States and England, they saved the world, plain and simple. God Bless, Mr. Brooks. Semper Fi

We have lost a wonderful family man, friend, and so much more. I am very grateful that I had the chance to know him as a friend, photographer, lunch companion, and photo trip teacher and companion ( I learned much from Cliff) and will miss him. Eleanor

Eleanor Roosevelt said "Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart." Cliff left his prints not only on my heart but so many more.
