About Us

Here is the story of our family...

The Brooks Family has been in Dallas since 1942. After Wilson & Faye Brooks graduated high school they made their home in Oak Cliff, Texas. Wilson Brooks was a barber by trade and worked in the Oak Cliff / Dallas area from 1942 to 1972 when he passed away. Faye Brooks rode the trolley car every morning from Oak Cliff to Downtown Dallas where she worked for A. Harris & Company for many years. In 1955 Wilson & Faye moved their home and family to Farmers Branch, Texas. Wilson was involved with Senior league baseball for many years in Farmers Branch. Many Saturdays Wilson would gather the neighborhood boys and give them haircuts free of charge. He was very active and very loving with his neighbors and community and especially his family. Faye was very active in civic and schools in Farmers Branch. She was very active in P.T.A. Faye has never met a stranger. She has helped many families along the way.

Wilson and Faye had four children. Wilson’s hard work ethics in treating people fairly was instilled in his children. After Wilson’s death in 1972, Faye reared her children as a single mother. They continued to reside in Farmers Branch. John P. Brooks was the third born to Wilson & Faye Brooks. He spent most his childhood years in Farmers Branch attending the Carrollton / Farmers Branch school system playing baseball and football and staying active in church. John is a graduate of Dallas Institute of Funeral Service where he was the President of his graduating class and member of Pi Sigma Eta fraternity. John is the President of The John P. Brooks Family Funeral/Cremation Corporation which owns funeral homes in North Texas. John is on the Board of Directors of Parents Against Crime and Drugs and the Foundation for Crippled Children, past member of the Board of Directors of the Dallas County Funeral Directors Association and The Texas Legislative Committee for The Texas Funeral Directors Association in Austin, Texas. John has had the honor to receive a United States Flag that was flown over The Capitol Building in his honor for strengthening and enriching those lives around him.
