Betty Lou Huffaker Brooks – age 85, of Knoxville, passed away on Tuesday, October 10, 2017 at Little Creek Nursing Home.

Her vivacious personality matched her natural red hair as she was often described as a “spitfire”.

She was quick with a joke and full of unconditional love.

She enjoyed quilting, embroidery, gardening, UT sports, and gospel music. She loved dogs, especially her faithful companion, Darby.

Betty was a down to earth woman who always put her family first. She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother.

Betty was preceded in death by her devoted husband of thirty-seven years, Carl Edward (Ed) Brooks, her parents Nora and James (Jimmy) Huffaker, and brother Jake Huffaker.

She is survived by her son, Dr. C. Edward (Eddie) Brooks (Cathy); daughter, Denise (Necie) Brooks; grandchildren Lindsay Brooks Creswell (Daniel) and Bradley Myers Brooks (Beth); great grand children Jacob, Isaac, Judson, and Colby Creswell and Grayson and Ali James Brooks; sister-in-law Shirley Lee; extra special friends, Dorothy Chapman and Willie Cate; and many wonderful neighbors.

The family would like to give a special thanks to the entire staff at Little Creek for the love and care they gave Betty during her time there.

Betty’s funeral will be Saturday, October 21, 2017 at 2:30 pm at Rose Mortuary Mann Heritage Chapel.

Immediately following the service, family and friends will travel to Henry’s Crossroad Cemetery in Kodak (2941 Douglas Dam Road) for the interment.

In lieu of flowers a tribute donation in memory of Betty may be made to the Pat Summit Foundation.

The family will receive friends on Saturday, October 21, from 1:00 – 2:30 pm at Rose Mortuary Mann Heritage Chapel. Obit furnished by Jane Lane (#46908160)
