Mrs Mae Brooks was an angel on earth. I had the pleasure of being in Mrs Brooks third grade class. I was a shy little girl who had just gone through a summer of my parent's small town divorce. Looking back, I see God placed me in her loving presence as she was strength, kindness, beauty and love. I am forever grateful for my Mrs Brooks🩷

My husband Terry had her as not only a teacher but a neighbor. I met her in my teen yrs. She was a remarkable woman. She truly loved her Lord and not only did she talk about the Lord, but she walked the walk. I will never forget how wonderful she was to me. Terry remembers when her husband Roy bought him a goat. haha..Lum told Roy he had to take it back. She was truly a praying and Godly woman. You were so blessed to have such a wonderful classy lady as a mother. She will be missed so much but just knowing we will see her again helps make it bearable. Just know our prayers are with you...
