Evelyn Isabel Brooks, 94, widow of Robert E. Brooks, passed away peacefully at home on Tuesday, January 16, 2018. Born in Chillicothe, OH, she was the daughter of the late William Buskirk and the late Winnie Gray Buskirk.
Mrs. Brooks is survived by her son, Randy Brooks and his wife, Angela, of Simpsonville; a daughter-in-law, Donna Brooks, of Texas; four grandchildren, Kristen Keplar and her husband, John, of Ohio, Tony Brooks of Texas, Shannon Moore and her husband, Chuck, also of Texas, and Sam Dawkins of Simpsonville; and four great grandchildren, Bobby Adams and Kaitlin Adams of Ohio, and Tyler Wooten and Taylor Brooks of Texas.
In addition to her husband and parents, Evelyn was preceded in death by a son, Harold William “Bill” Brooks; three brothers, Harold Buskirk, Earl Buskirk, and Charles Buskirk; and three sisters, Florence Klotz, Gladys Kerns, and Emma Stitt.
Mrs. Brooks will be laid to rest with her husband at Floral Hills Memory Gardens in Chillicothe, OH.
Dear Brooks Family: My deepest sympathy for the family and friends of Evelyn. We will never get used to losing our loved ones in death because as Ecclesiastes 3:11 says, “We were created with everlasting life in view.” But may you find comfort in knowing that Almighty God has promised that soon he will swallow up death forever along with the pain that it brings. (Isaiah 25:8) God has also promised that he will return Evelyn to you as it says at John 5:28,29. You can also learn more about what happens when a loved one dies at JW.org.
Sincerely,
Susan
