My how time flies. I was looking at your obituary program and realized it has been four years since your passing. You are greatly missed by some of your neighbors (starting with myself). I miss seeing you pull up in the driveway and Mike and Luke (Duke-deceased) greeting you at your van. Miss seeing you working in your beautiful flower garden and trimming your rose bushes. Mike has everything looking really nice as you would have wanted. You were and would have been so proud of him.

Dear Mr. Brookman and family,
I am so sorry to hear of your great loss. Mrs. Brookman was always so sweet and always stopped to chat while visiting her Mom at Mennowood. Her kindness will always be remembered. May our LORD hold you all close to HIS heart during this very difficult time and give you strength for the days ahead.

Dear Mike, Adam, & Mark, and family, you're mother was such a sweetheart, and I am so happy I had the privilege of growing up in her presence. One of many of her kind gestures was "B.J.'s Gate."
