Michael Levy Brooks Sr.

I had the privilege of meeting Michael Brooks in 2000 while teaching at John Marshall High School. Over time, he became much more than just a colleague to me. Brooks was my mentor, neighbor, friend, and confidant. He was an excellent English teacher who respected his colleagues and students. Brooks was a kindhearted, compassionate, and generous man with great humor. He was always there to advise his family, my family, and friends when they needed it. My admiration for Brooks grew even...

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

Sending my deepest condolences to Mr. Micheal L. Brooks Sr. and his loving family. He will always be remembered as a shining example of greatness, standing tall as a gentleman and an icon of black teachers from Churchill.

Michael was always a kind person. We went to school together and grew up in the same church.

Sending prayers and my condolences to the Brooks family. Michael will truly be missed. He was a true gentleman and a wonderful classmate. AHS Class of 1968

Mr Brooks was my absolute all time favorite teacher("92)! My mom,('75),had the privilege of being on of his first classes in the 70s and of course he was her fave too! Mr Brooks fostered a love of literature in me that continues to this day. RPS was blessed to have him. You will be sorely missed Mr Brooks Sending my sincere condolences to the Brooks family and friends

What an awesome man, teacher and colleague. I first met Mr. Brooks running track with the West End Striders where he´d be there cheering for Mike, Jr. While a student at JM, he was my English teacher. Mr. Brooks was so smooth and his smile would light up the classroom. Later on, I had the privilege of working with him when I returned to JM. Mr. Brooks was a great man with a big heart and will be truly missed. I will keep his family lifted in prayer.

Words cannot explain how much I miss you.

God bless the family in this time of sorrow. Mr. Brooks will always be remembered for an excellent teacher at John Marshall High School. (Class of 1978 - JMHS 45th Class Reunion Meet & Greet photo)
