I wanted to let the family know that back in 1970 I was taken to Dr. Brooks. Back then lots of folks did not have the funds to go to the Doctor. He examined me and told my Mother to get me to the hospital quickly. My appendix had ruptured and gangrene, the doctor at lumberton who performed the surgery told my parents I had a 50/50 chance, Dr. Brooks had a contribution to my health. I pray that this gives you comfort in knowing that he was a blessing to many. Praying for the family.

Robeson County has truly lost a great man. He was a pioneer in his profession when the Lumbee people had very few doctors. I knew him on a personal scale since he was my childhood doctor. I will always remember his kind smile and gentleness. May he always RIP with the one who loved him most...his Creator!!
