Forest Clyde Brooks, 75

Forest Brooks was a good and faithful servant of Jesus, who loved others with Jesus’ love, used all his God-given talents to the fullest, remained faithful in patiently carrying his daily crosses until his last breath when he completed the race and finished Tuesday, March 21, 2023, the fourth week of Lent and St. Benedict’s Feast Day.

All his life, Forest served others and did the work of 10 people. He volunteered with Seattle Prep basketball and football doing stats. He was offered two full scholarships to Seattle University in 1965, in academics and sports. Forest chose sports and was the manager of the SU Baseball Team for four years (1965-69).

Jesus will always be with us. The best gift anyone can give is prayers for Forest and myself. My father is a fallen firefighter. Forest and I are a firefighter family. Forest lived his life like my father. Forest is such a good man who made a difference in so many ways especially with high school athletics. I will follow Forest, trust in the immaculate heart of Mary.

Bell Tower Funeral Home is entrusted with arrangements.
