She later worked at River Valley Resources, Inc., Work One, and Lowe's. Brooke was passionate about helping others. She counseled those who shared similar disabilities. She had a good heart and was always willing to help people. Having to go back on dialysis, she was still productive. Brooke made wreaths, rugs, and her famous "Suds in a Bucket". With the help of her service dog Roscoe, she accomplished many things. Her positive attitude and ability to make people laugh will be remembered by many.
