Fannie Mae Brooks
Fannie Mae Brooks, 84, of Lynchburg, VA, died Wednesday, January 29, 2014. She was the wife of the late John William Brooks.
Born Thursday, March 21, 1929 in Nelson County, Mae was a daughter of the late Henry Spencer and the late Annie Smith Spencer.
In addition to her husband and her parents, Mae was preceded in death by two brothers and two sisters.
Mae is survived by her children: Elsie Dolan Goodman and her husband, Harold, of Piney River, Shelby Tyree, of Gladstone, Tina Spencer, of Madison Heights, Louann McClure and her husband, Leon, of Lynchburg, David L.

Mae was devoted to her family. Her life was her family. She loved them unconditionally and they felt her love. A positive, strong willed person, who never complained, she was a mother to many.
