Gardiner "GT" Brooks Jr.

We were so sorry to hear about GT. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your whole family.

Mrs. Brooks, Cary, Laurie, Tyler and Charles,
I was sadden to hear of the loss of your husband and dad. And sorry that I was out of town during the funeral. I pray that time and memories will heal the sorrow and pain of losing a loving, giving and caring husband and father. May he rest in peace.

My sweet GT, I love you & miss you & I always will-
til we meet again-love you Dad
love Mace

Tyler, Charles and family,
I am saddened by the passing of your father. What a neat and caring person. He always had kind words for your classmates / teammates. He was one of the great ones. One of the twin towers of CCS parents will be missed. God bless Bootsie! Had to add that for Tyler since I got him whopped for calling your dad that one of the years I was at CCS.

Tyler and Charles: sorry to hear of your father's passing. I fondly remember my days visiting the Brooks Agency on behalf of The Hartford.

What Lisa said was perfect. I just wanted to let you know Charles and Tyler that I am thinking of you and the huge loss you are suffering. My prayers and love are with your families.

Our sympathy and love go out to you and the family GT will be greatly missed .. George and Janet Tinsley

Heaven will be even more interesting with GT's arrival. Although we have lost the brightness of his mind and spirit, the memories we have will still bring a smile and sometimes a chuckle. God Bless G T and his family and friends.

8/15/1985 I joined the Brooks Agency gang, Tyler made sure that I understood that I could call him or his brother, Charles anything I wanted, but when I met his father, I would definately call him "Mr. Brooks", never would I have called him anything else, I had the upmost respect for such a kind & gentle man, of course I looked way up to meet him with "shaking knees".. Mr. Brooks was an inspiration to me, such a knowledgeable man. I loved the breaks when he would tell us stories. Mr. Brooks asking for help with the new technology equipment was a joy, he would come in the office needing help with the fax machine, I think we all jumped up, because it was such fun helping him, he would just smile & shake his head... The good ole days at 110 Westover Ave, maybe gone, but never forgotten. May you rest in peace Mr. Brooks, thanks for the memories.
Mrs. Brooks, Tyler, Charles, Cary, Laurie - my prayers are with you all and your families.

GT brought a warmth to every room he entered. The boyish twinkle in his eye, and his incessant self-deprecating humor masked a lifetime of leadership and achievement. He was indeed a role model for his legacy of children, and he was a role model for me. I will forever think of him with a smile on my face.
