Ronald R. Brooks Sr.

I came across Ron´s obituary today when searching for my own dad´s (cousin Douglas Brooks, son of J. Douglas and Mildred) high school graduation year. They were the last two first cousins living, I believe, from the John H. and Laura D. Brooks family. Dad died in 2020, and I called Ron afterward and had a good conversation. He later sent me a thumb drive of his family pictures that I think Reed had helped him put together, although maybe it was John. I am very grateful for that. We always enjoyed the times Ron (& Donna) came to town with the boys. I remember swimming together in the Brooks Drive pool and a lot of laughter. We were in awe of Ron´s being a state policeman. We loved Uncle Ted and Aunt Bernice and always being welcomed at the hardware store. Many blessings, Myra, Reed, John, and families. Thank you for caring so well for him at the end. I´m sure it´s hard celebrating this first Christmas season without him.
