Gwendolyn Brooks, originally of Selma, Alabama transitioned peacefully on Saturday Evening (April 23, 2022), surrounded by her loved ones.
"Sweet", as she was affectionately known, was born on November 14th, 1965, to the late Gladys Towns-McBride and J.T. Fails. She will be remembered by her many accomplishments. Graduating from Glades Central Community High School in 1984 she then fluidly attained several healthcare and correctional licenses. Sweet was an exceptional and dedicated employee. She was always willing to go the extra mile to get the job done. It is said that with her jest personality work flowed like Keith Sweat on a slow jam. Her love for people was apparent by her willingness to assist others while juggling the roles of being a devoted wife, mother, and grandmother.
She finally has reconnected with three sisters Lois, Eva, and Linda, two brothers Ronnie and J.C., among other loved ones residing in Heaven.
Those left to cherish her memory includes her sister Gloria, brother Erin, Children Willie III, Jatarick Sr. and Tiffani; Bonus children Wilnequia and Anton, Husband Willie Jr., grandchildren B.J., Jatarick Jr., Serenity, Ivy, Jaydin, Kymba, Kawhi, and Kynah, five nieces, five nephews, four uncles, seven aunts, fur companion CoCoa, and an anchor of cousins, other relatives, and friends.
