BROOKS Patricia

PATRICIA MARY BROOKS, beloved wife of the late Mickey Brooks, passed away on September 2, 2014 at the age of 83 years. "Pat" was the loving mother of Michelle Walker, Valerie (Junji) Kuno, Bruce and Tom (Colleen) Brooks and grandmother to 16 grandchildren and 21 great- grandchildren. She was a loving sister to her brother Tom Yates and an aunt to a large and loving extended family. Pat was predeceased by her husband Mickey, her son Bill, her great-grandson Jacob Anthony, her parents Harold and Ethel Yates, her brothers Bill and Richard Yates and her sister-in-law Midge Yates. Pat will always be remembered by all who knew her. She loved children and was happiest with a baby on her knee; of both her own children and grandchildren and the many children she helped care for over the years. Pat and Mickey’s house was always open, the coffee pot on and the cookies made. The house was small but so full of love that there was always room for one more. Mom’s faith was very important to her and this helped so much as she coped with the difficult times. Mom, "We look forward to seeing you again in heaven".
