We were so sorry to hear of Talmadge's passing, though we know he went through many trials over the past few years. We will miss his kindness, his soft voice and genuine smile at the family reunions. He is at peace now. Our love and sympathy go out to all of the family; our hearts are with you.

First Baptist Church has lost their mainstay. During my tenure as pastor (1990-98)Tom was a source of constant support and encouragement. The word deacon comes from the Greek word diaconia which means to minister or serve. Tom embodied the role of deacon as few others in my experience. He served his Lord and the members of the congregation in more ways than I can list. He continued to be my friend over the years, and I shall miss him more than words can say. My love and prayers for Mildred...

Dear Mrs. Brooks,
I was so sorry to hear of Mr. Brooks passing. He was so very wonderful visiting my mom, Katherine Bourke, so often when she was in the hospital several years ago. I remember him from church when I was growing up at First Baptist. He was such a dear, sweet man. Again, I am so sorry for your loss.

Kathy,David and Family,
Sorry I can not be with you at this time, but my thoughts and prayers are with you.
May God Bless and be with you and your family. I love you.

I am the driver that took over Tom's route delivering to the Danville area. I am so sorry I never got to know Tom. Every nurse at every nursing home would always ask about Tom. They all would say what a wonderful person he was. What a fine way to be remembered. So sorry for your loss.

My deepest sympathy to Tom’s family. I remember taking my car to his shop back in the 70s, and remember him as a really good man who I was glad to know. I’m sure you will all miss him greatly, and wish you the comfort of knowing Tom has earned his peace and we’ll see him again in a better place.

Sincerely,
Dave Overstreet
