OBITUARY
“We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from this body and to be present with the Lord.”
2 Corinthians 5:8
A TIME TO BE BORN
On Friday March 27th, 1959, at the Rassin Hospital, Dr. Myer Rassin delivered a bouncing baby boy to Mr. Nathaniel Charles Brooks Sr. and Nurse Shirley Cooper-Brooks. He would then be named Nathaniel Charles Brooks Jr. Charles was the first and the eldest of three children.
HIS CHILDHOOD: A TIME TO LEARN
As Charles grew up, he gradually earned the affectionate nickname “Charlie” due to his infectious and magnetic personality that drew people to him. He found joy in spending time with his siblings and other family members. Charles and his younger brother Andrew spent most of their summers on the picturesque island of Eleuthera, specifically in the charming James Cistern settlement. Their summers were filled with adventure and joy, creating lasting memories in the idyllic surroundings of the island. Charles’ charisma and the bond he shared with Andrew made those summers truly unforgettable.
As a young boy, Charles attended the Wilton Albury Primary School also known as “Brown & Tan”. He then went on to receive his secondary education at Queen’s College where he graduated in 1975. While at Queen’s College, he was actively involved in sports such as soccer and boy scouts. He had a keen interest in the subject areas of mathematics and sciences. After graduating, Charles then enrolled at the College of The Bahamas where he began studying Business Administration with a concentration in Bookkeeping and Accounting.
During his childhood, Charles faced a significant challenge when his mother, Nurse Shirley, became gravely ill. This period was crucial in shaping Charles into the devoted family man he became. It was during this time that Charles learned the essential life skills such as cooking, cleaning and managing the household. He took on the responsibility of caring for his younger siblings, Yvette and Andrew, especially after his mother’s passing. These experiences instilled in Charles a deep sense of responsibility and compassion, qualities that defined him throughout his life.
A TIME FOR LOVE AND FAMILY
In the early 1970’s Charles was introduced to Daphne through mutual family connections. What began as a warm friendship between families gradually deepened into something more meaningful. Over time, their bond grew stronger, evolving into a loving relationship built on trust and shared values. After several years together, Charles and Daphne decided to take the next step in their journey, and on October 11th, 1986, they were joyfully married.
This union was blessed with two children: Diallo and Charlexis.
Charles was a devoted husband and father whose boundless love for his family was evident in everything he did. He was always ready to meet their needs, no matter what was required of him.
Charles never missed a family vacation, school program, or outing, always making sure to be present for the moments that mattered most. He invested deeply in his children, ensuring they felt supported and cherished every step of the way. His unwavering commitment and affection were the foundations of his family’s happiness and unity.
A TIME TO WORK
In the early 1980s, Charles gained employment with Fargo Express where he carried out courier services to and from South Florida. He then joined J.S Johnson Insurance Brokers where he served as an Underwriter for a short time.
After leaving J.S Johnson, Charles fully embraced entrepreneurship by becoming a Taxi Driver. With the support of his father Nathaniel Sr., Charles obtained his own taxi plate, which marked the beginning of Brooks Limousine and Taxi Services. Charles thrived in the transportation industry for an impressive 38 years. His passion for both people and the Tourism & Hospitality industry allowed him to connect with visitors from diverse backgrounds, forging lasting friendships along the way. Charles was a proud and valued member of the Bahamas Livery Drivers Union where he served diligently at the Lynden Pindling International Airport until January 2025. The union awarded
him a certificate of achievement in recognition of his pursuit of excellence and commitment to the livery industry and professional growth.
A TIME TO DIE
In January 2025, after undergoing numerous tests and scans, doctors discovered that Charles had developed a large tumor on the left and temporal sides of his brain. Faced with this serious diagnosis, Charles made the difficult decision to step away from his business & daily work life so that he could concentrate solely on his health.
While Charles was at home, he began to deepen his relationship with The Lord. Many days, the Brooks’ household was filled with sermons and the uplifting melodies of gospel music, providing Charles with the strength he needed to navigate the challenges life had presented him. The spiritual communion became a source of solace and resilience, helping Charles to persevere and find hope amidst adversity. The presence of faith and music in his home was a vital part of his journey, offering him comfort and fortitude during this difficult time.
On Tuesday, April 15th, Charles had to be rushed to the hospital where it was later found that he had contracted a severe case of pneumonia. Prior to entering the ambulance, Charles held the hands of his family one last time where he uttered the sinner’s
prayer and accepted, the Lord as his Savior. At 2:50am on April 17th, Nathaniel Charles Brooks Jr. passed away peacefully from time into eternity leaving behind a legacy rich in love, wisdom and service.
Charles was predeceased by his parents: Nathaniel Charles McNeal Brooks Sr. & Nurse Shirley Cooper-Brooks.

THE PROCESSION OF THE FAMILY
OPENING SENTENCES | Pastor Nelson McFall, Associate Pastor Mount Tabor Church
“So when this corruptible has put on incorruption And this mortal has put on immortality
Then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written
Death is swallowed up in victory
Oh Death where is your sting” Oh Hades where is your victory?
The sting of death is sin
And the strength of sin is the law.
But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory
Through our Lord Jesus Christ”

OPENING HYMN | “Heaven’s Jubilee”
Some glad morning, we shall see Jesus in the air
Coming after you and me, joy is ours to share
What rejoicing, that will be, when the saints shall raise
Headed for that jubilee, yonder in the skies.
(Chorus)
Oh what singing, Oh what shouting
On that happy morning, when we all shall rise
Oh what glory, hallelujah?
When we meet our blessed Saviour in the skies.
Seems that now I almost see all the sainted dead
Raising for that jubilee, that is just ahead
In the twinkling of an eye, changed with them to be
All the living saints to fly to that jubilee
When with all the heavenly host, we’ll begin to sing, Singing in the Holy Ghost how the heav’ns ring
Millions there will join the song, with them we shall be
Praising Christ thru ages long, Heaven’s jubilee.

(Chorus)
It’s alright now, for I am in my Saviour’s care It’s alright now; my Saviour hears and answers prayer He’ll walk with me, (He’ll walk beside me) Till I climb the heavenly stair, And everything (And everything is alright now)
A’ down a lonely pathway, without a friend to guide, I walked in sin and sorrow all alone ‘Till Jesus came and found me, and drew me to His side; It’s alright now, for I’m His own.
No more in sin I wander, no more in darkness roam The Lord has placed my feet on higher ground; Each day new heights I’m gaining, my soul is nearing home, It’s alright now, I’m heaven bound.

It’s alright now for I’m His own
No more in sin I wander no more in darkness roam
The Lord has placed my feet on higher ground Each day new heights I’m gaining my soul is nearing home

There’s a city of Light, where there cometh no night; ‘Tis a city of beauty untold; All my treasures are there and its beauty I’ll share, When I get to that city of gold.
(Chorus)
When I leave all trouble and care, I will say good morning up there; I will have great gladness untold, When I get to that city of gold
There’s no sorrow up there in that city so fair And no sickness can enter I’m told; Shadows all will have flown, I will meet friend I’ve known When we get to that city of gold.
Won’t you go there with me to the home of the free, Would you see heaven’s beauty unfold? If you will come along, we will sing heaven’s song When we get to that City of gold.

His Legacy
TO MY DEAR HUSBAND, CHARLES
As I write this tribute to you, my heart is heavy. Charles, you were my best friend and an extraordinary husband. I saw you as a giant of a man and a role model to others. Thank you for the love, laughter, and joy we shared together. I know you cared deeply for our family because this was displayed through your words and actions each day.
Charles, you were the protector, provider, chef and mechanic of the family. Over the years, I will always remember the great meals you prepared for our family, the Sunday drives around the island for conch salad & fritters, and our family vacations, which were an exciting time for us all where we would spend time shopping, eating and enjoying entertainment parks.
You were a family man and a hard worker during your time here on earth. I was blessed to have a husband like you. You had a heart of gold always helping and looking out for others. I am grateful to God for allowing me to care for you in the last three months of your life, while working from home. It was not easy experiencing what you went through.
Even in the toughest moments, I held onto hope that you would recover and return home. But God had a different plan—a plan to bring you complete healing and call you home to be with Him. Knowing that you are now resting in the Lord’s arms brings me comfort, especially after witnessing you accept Christ before your passing. I will always love you and carry the memories of us in my heart forever.
Your presence will be greatly missed. Sleep on and take your well-deserved rest. Until we meet again.
Your Loving Wife, Daphne
TO MY BEST FRIEND NOW IN HEAVEN,
Congratulations! You did it buddy! Job well done. Daddy, it was a grueling journey, but you made it through to the finish line.
To say I am happy for you is an understatement. It brings me immense joy to know that God answered my prayer. In March, on my morning drive to work I spoke with Him because I was extremely disturbed at the state of your health. This was certainly not the Charles Brooks I was accustomed to. With a heavy heart, I asked God to grant you total Healing, Happiness, & Freedom. Ideally, I wanted this wish to be fulfilled here on earth, but I told God if he saw it fit to call you home, I would still understand. Life on earth is a blessing, but it does not compare to being with The Master in Heaven where you can experience eternal life, comfort, peace, rest, safety and more so I was petitioning for the absolute best outcome for you.
Daddy, I will forever give God the utmost thanks and praise for choosing you to be my earthly father for 25 years. You were the standard. The example. The blueprint of what it meant to be a real man, a loving husband, and a devoted father. To our family, you were the leader, protector, and provider. I often tell persons that the average young man in today’s world could never be a quarter of the man that you were.
If I had to speak about everything that you have done for me, we would be here forever. Therefore, I will simply say that from the moment I made my entrance into this world, you poured your entire heart and soul into me. Daddy, you played an instrumental role in shaping me into the woman that I am today. The same two words I whispered to you in your last days, I will say it again – thank you. For every lesson, every sacrifice, every quality moment we shared. I can assure you that as long as I have breath in my body, I will continue to be the daughter in whom you have always been pleased.
May God bless you, Nathaniel Charles Brooks Jr. Your purpose here on earth has been fulfilled and now it is time for you to take your well-deserved rest. Though my heart aches and the tears flow at the absence of your physical presence, my eyes remain fixated on eternity where one day we will be able to meet face to face. Until then…see you later, Daddy. I love you!
Your Baby, Lexii
DEAR DADDY,
I never imagined I would have to write these words, but here I am. This moment is incredibly hard for me because I have always been used to having you right by my side. You were the strongest, most determined, and loving father a son could ever ask for. With each day that passes, it feels like a piece of my heart is missing without you here.
I will forever cherish the times we shared—working on cars together, watching basketball while you teased me about my Lakers (Purple and Gold all day!), and playing pool on family vacations, laughing with everyone. Those memories are priceless, and what I miss the most is simply your presence, being able to see you, talk to you, and just be with you.
You were a true fighter, always doing your best to care for Mommy, Lexii, Yvette, Andrew, Teron, and I. Family meant everything to you, and you made sure we knew it. I can still hear your voice saying, “Y’all are my babies.” You loved us unconditionally—every single one of us—and that love will never be forgotten.
Though my heart is heavy, and my eyes are filled with tears, I find comfort in knowing that your pain is over, and you are now resting peacefully in Heaven. I know you’re watching over us with that big, proud smile of yours. It won’t be easy facing the days ahead without you, but I believe we will find strength because that’s what you would want for us.
Rest peacefully, Daddy. Know that you are deeply loved and will forever be missed.
Love, Diallo
TO THE BEST BIG BROTHER IN ALL THE WORLD
You were the eldest and I was the youngest. We bonded right away .... I spent more time in your room than my own as we would share jokes and when we played checkers you would let me win. I loved listening to your latest 45s [records]. We protected each other especially when we knew punishments from Daddy were eminent.
You would be left in charge to look after Andrew and I, taking this responsibility seriously even to the day God called you home. You took charge of our home cooking and carrying out other household chores after our mother’s passing.
As you grew into young adulthood, you were wise beyond your years proving yourself to be capable and knowledgeable from an early age in so many areas, particularly given there was no internet to Google anything. You quickly became the “go to” person to me and so many others.
Whenever you wanted to do something, you would always formulate an in-depth plan to get it done with alternative plans A, B, & C. You would never give up.
I remember when you took me to Florida to buy my first car. You convinced me to buy a standard shift (manual shift) car because
you said everything about it was perfect except, I could not drive standard shift. You promised to teach me how to drive it. I kept that vehicle for 10 years before purchasing another, standard shift of course.
You were there for all the milestones in my life cheering me on and supporting me in all that I did, in good times and not so good times.
You taught me so many important life lessons like treating everyone with dignity and respect and when you are in position to help others, help them.
I will miss all the happy times we shared, travelling during family trips that you led, our calls throughout the day, your sound advice and counsel but most of all your wisdom, kindness and love that never wavered. You showed me that I had a treasured place in your heart, just like the one I have in my heart for you.
Rest in peace my brother, we will meet again. I love you but Jesus loves you best.
Yvette
A TRIBUTE TO MY BROTHER
My brother Charles was a foundational presence in my life. From childhood, he inspired me—as his younger brother, I looked up to him. Like most siblings, we had our share of rivalries, but I always respected him deeply. Charles was a kind, gentle soul with an open heart, always willing to help anyone in need. His generosity and compassion defined him.
We shared countless memorable moments, especially during our early years between Nassau and James Cistern, Eleuthera, surrounded by family. Our father, originally from South Caicos in Turks Island, and our mother, a proud Eleutheran, traveled often, and Charles and I relished those experiences as kids. We both attended Queen’s College—Charles graduated in 1975, and I followed in 1977—before setting off on our individual paths in life.
Charles was dedicated, hardworking, and always aimed for excellence. Whatever he pursued, he gave it his all—and he succeeded. His true passion was hospitality, and he excelled in it, following in the footsteps of our father, Nathaniel Brooks Sr.—affectionately known as “MaLord Brooks”.
Charles wore many hats—brother, husband, father, and friend. The time we shared is etched in my heart forever. I loved him deeply.
It breaks my heart that on Thursday, April 17th, Charles passed into the arms of our Lord. Though he is in a better place, the love he left behind is profound, and the pain of his absence runs deep.
Rest on, my brother. You were everything I could have asked for. Until we meet again—rest on, Charlie. Your little brother loves you. God knows best. Andrew
DEAR DADDY,
Dad.. so many images come to mind whenever I speak your name; It seems without you in my life things have never been the same. What happened to those lazy days when I was just a child; When my life was consumed in your love, and in your smile.
What happened to all those times when I always looked to you; No matter what happened in my life you could make my gray skies blue.
Dad, some days I hear your voice and turn to see your face; Yet in my turning..it seems the sound has been erased.
Dad, who will I turn to for answers when life does not make sense; Who will be there to hold me close when the pieces just don’t fit.
Dad, if I could turn back time and once more hear your voice; I’d tell you that out of all the dads you would still be my choice.
Please always know I love you and no one can take your place; Years may come and go but your memory will never be erased.
Today, Jesus, as You are listening in your home above; Would you go and find my dad and give him all my love.
With love, Teron
A MESSAGE OF GRATITUDE
We, the family of the late Nathaniel Charles Brooks Jr., wish to extend our sincerest appreciation to all those who have been present in the midst of this challenging time in our lives. You have been a light in the middle of our darkness. Your love, prayers, & generosity means more to us than words can express. We ask that you continue to uplift our family in prayers as we navigate this new journey without our beloved Charlie. With God’s help, we will have the strength and comfort to continue on.
