Jack Alexander "Chip” Brooks, Jr

Pat, You have our deepest sympathies on the passing of Chip. We were best fishing buddies and I know Chip was also a "Fisher of Men". Bass wishes, Drew

I am incredibly sorry for the passing of Chip. I will miss him greatly. Steve Pace

So sorry and deep condolences. Just heard about your loss so apologies for the delay. Have not seen Chip in years, but remember so well when he received a major national USPTA award (an eagle on a stand) and stood in front of hundreds and said, "Back in Tennessee, we use these things as hood ornaments!" The crowd erupted in laughter and applause.

I hate that I didn't see Chip over the years very much based on him living in FL, but I was able to talk to him last year when he was in town, so I won't forget that. Even though he was 5 years older than me, when we were younger, he never treated me like some people do when there is an age difference. He was always glad to see you and would start up conversation. Prayers for the entire Brooks family.

My sincere condolences to Patti, Jake, Jarrad, Lindsey and Lacey. Chip was always a pleasure to be around and always supportive. Love and prayers to you all from the entire Fair Family.

My condolences to Chip's family, I share your sadness, his love will always be within each of you! I was lucky to work under his leadership here at the Academy, I am very thankful to Chip for giving me the job. Chip...may you rest in eternal peace in the Arms of the Lord! Keep fishing and coaching!

I knew Chip through my nephew Joe Hunsader and my husband Paul Hunsader. Joe and Paul were a very good friend of Chips. After Joe died Chip would come over to the house and talk tennis.

Chip always had a solution, no matter what the situation. He was good friend and will be missed.

I was blessed to get to work with Chip at IMG,he made it a lot of fun. Chip never met a stranger and really cared about people. He always had such great stories to tell. I’m sure he touched thousands of lives, including mine, and I know he will be greatly missed. Sending love and prayers to his beautiful family. ❤
