Fritz Harold Brooks, 89, died Wednesday, June 24, 2015 at the San Antonio Veterans Hospital.
Fritz was born January 15, 1926, at home in Swisher County, Texas to Fritz and Geneva Brooks.
Fritz served in the Marines and was wounded during World War II where he received the Purple Heart commendation for his dedication and bravery. The discipline and patriotism he learned in the Marines never left him, as friends and family will attest.

He also leaves behind five great grandchildren Harley Jacobs, Karson Moeller, Nathaniel Cheever, Madeline Cheever and Brielan Janysek.
