Brook was a very caring and loving mom, sister, daughter and friend to many. She enjoyed watching her daughter, Tiffani and her team play volleyball. Often her voice could be heard “Go Mustangs!” Brook had many happy moments attending auctions, rummage sales, flea markets and camping. She loved music, the Vikings, the color purple, collecting pigs and angels. She became a cat and dog lover, and had some special pals, bringing them for car rides to McDonald’s. She cherished the little time she had with Tiffani.
