Emilee “Brooke” Millsaps

Emilee “Brooke” Millsaps, 36, went to her heavenly home on Sunday, March 14, 2021.

Brooke was born on December 14, 1984, in Hickory, to Janet and Rodney Millsaps. Brooke enjoyed singing about Jesus, reading books, and spending time with family.

She was a cherished daughter, sister, aunt, granddaughter, niece, and friend. She was affectionately referred to as “Aunt Broopie” by her niece and nephews. Brooke was loved dearly by her church family, who remembers Brooke for singing praises and worshipping in her own way.

Her life was a testament of God’s faithfulness. Brooke was a willing servant of the Lord’s; allowing her life to be used to show His mighty power and sovereignty time and time again.
