Rest in peace Brook, you were always a good friend. Ill never forget the good times we had growing up together. You were one of the smartest person I ever seen on a computer. I still have the laptop you installed Linux on and it still works after 15 years. I know you're in a better place than you've ever known. And finally at peace. Till we meet again so long my friend.

I remember your curly, blonde hair and big blue eyes. You loved drinking Yoo-hoo, eating bologna while drinking Dr.Pepper and watching cartoons. You were SO smart. Unbelievably smart and so funny. I always enjoyed our conversations outside of grandmas late at night. You loved your momma and Papa so much. I´m glad you are finally at peace with them. We will miss you and we will love you always.
