Jaelin Malik Brooks

January 10, 2025

It is with profound sadness that the family of Jaelin Malik Brooks announces his unexpected passing on January 10th, 2025. Born March 18, 2003, with a radiant spirit and a heart full of love, Jaelin was a proud graduate of Camden Early College High School, where he earned his Associate’s degree in Arts. He went on to make his mark in the world as the store manager of the AT&T store in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina.

Known for his dedication to ensuring every customer’s needs were met, Jaelin took immense pride in his work and formed meaningful connections with those around him. Jaelin’s personality was one-of-a-kind — funny, charismatic, and deeply loyal. He wore his heart on his sleeve, never hesitating to give more of himself than he ever expected in return. He brought light and laughter to those fortunate enough to know him, always offering a listening ear, a warm smile, and a shoulder to lean on.

Jaelin is survived by his loving parents, Christina and Kenneth Brooks; his brother, Tyree Brooks; and his sister, Angelyna Brooks. He also leaves behind his cherished grandparents, Leroy Brooks, James Sills, and Pamela Sills, along with many beloved aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends. He is reunited in peace with his predeceased grandmother, Jacquelin Brooks.

The family will announce a celebration of Jaelin’s life at a later date, inviting those who knew and loved him to come together and honor the incredible legacy he leaves behind. Jaelin’s kindness, humor, and generous heart will forever be missed, but his spirit will live on in the memories of all who were lucky enough to know him.
