Arthur Van Nordan Brooks Obituary
It is with deep sorrow that we announce the death of Arthur Van Nordan Brooks of Cleveland Heights, Ohio, who passed away on July 6, 2021, at the age of 85, leaving to mourn family and friends. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Arthur Van Nordan Brooks to show support.
He is survived by: his children, Lauren Miller (Stan), Caryn Brooks, Kristin Brooks (Glenn Meyer) and Tom Brooks; his grandchildren, Riccardo, Federico, Ruggero, Storm, Tenaya, Avery, Jared and Griffin (Emmett); and his close friend Alice Sherman. He is also survived by her children and grandchildren.
As a founding member of the Phoenix Phellows, Art met in coffee houses (and during the pandemic, on Zoom) with the same group of beloved friends to share stories, tell jokes, and engage in lively debate.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to The City Club of Cleveland, Apollo's Fire, or The Holden Arboretum.
