John Wayne Brooks

Regardless what the situation was, John always had a radiating smile. Even more when talking about his family and hobbies. You will be missed by many, rest in peace. Deepest condolences to the family and loved ones.

I worked with Wayne for years in Africa. He was a great friend. Sorry for you loss.

I'm gutted and still in shock. Rest in peace Wayne. You were one of the good ones, a true brother and patriot. May God bless him and his family...

JW was a great friend in the time I knew him, always had a joke to tell, I have great memories of the time spent in Angola with John, he will live on in our stories, RIP JW you will be missed.

I am saddened by his passing and regarded him with great respect and admiration. I had many of great times and have many memories when we worked together in Angola, my thoughts and prayers are with John's family at this time.

I always remember the good time we had together in Malongo as friend and colleague. Rest in peace and God give strength to your wife and daughters.

It was a pleasure to work with you friend and I will always remember the cookouts in Malongo.

My deepest sympathies to all John's family.
Many a great time was spent with John by the BBQ pit in Malongo, having a beer and trying to get the BBQ started. You will be missed by all that have known you.

John was a friend and a source of sarcastic humor in Malongo. My prayers are with him and his family.

RIP John. The good times in Angola and Chicago will always be remembered.
