Rex Eugene Brooks

I remember how much much Mrs. Brooks (Coleen) loved Rex. He inspired Mrs. Brooks which, in part, is why she was such a prolific and expert writer.

Rex was a wonderful, kind, gentle person.

I just Rex Brooks obituary--I guess I was drawn to the picture-the smile, the smirk like he was thinking of something funny.

What a wonderful life and story.

It is with fond memories and a sad heart that I read of your father's passing. I am thinking of such fun summers vacationing at Lake Tahoe, sharing adjoining cabins, days spent in the sun swimming and of family nights out having dinners in your Oakland home. After my mom passed, we lost touch but I hope this note finds you both remembering the sweet memories of your parents and that you are well and surviving these difficult times; times made more difficult by the loss of your father. With a sad heart, Margaret Warhurst, (Missey Mangels)

I have such fond memories of Rex. He was kind of my adopted father. He was always there for me and he could give the best hugs. I could always go to him with issues and he would guide me to be a better person. Having worked for him twice I can say he is the most level headed person I've ever met. I have never seen him really mad. He is one of the most honest, warm hearted person I have ever met with the upmost integrity and I love him to pieces. So many fond memories. Rex you will certainly be missed.

Also my best and warmest wishes to Robert.

I didn't know Uncle Rex well, but every interaction with him was warm and kind. He was clearly a man of great integrity and compassion. I know my Mom will miss him dearly. My best and warmest regards to Claudia.
