Obituary of Brooks Andrew Koenig

In Loving Memory of Brooks Andrew Koenig

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Brooks Andrew Koenig, 41, who left us on Wednesday, June 19, 2024. Brooks was a beloved son, brother, uncle, and friend, who resided in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Brooks was born on February 16, 1983 in Regina, Saskatchewan (Canada). He was known for his kindness, generosity, and unwavering spirit. He touched the lives of many with his warm smile and gentle heart.

Brooks had a passion for history, books, movies and politics - he was a wealth of information, with well-researched and measured responses for any question. He loved his family, his friends, and his two cocker spaniels. He held a Bachelors in Accounting from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette and Master of Accountancy from the University of Houston. He worked at Quanta Services for 7 years, earning his CPA while there and passing each exam on the first attempt.

Brooks is survived by his parents, Norma and Robert Koenig, his sister Rebecca Rich and her husband Tom Rich, and his three nieces, Abbie, Livvie and Ellie, who will miss him dearly. He also leaves behind a large circle of friends and extended family who will forever cherish his memory. He was a loyal, generous and loving son, uncle and friend.

A memorial service to celebrate Brooks's life will be held for immediate family and Brooks’s closest friends on July 27 at Central Church in Sioux Falls, SD.

Rest in peace, Brooks. Your memory will forever live on in our hearts.
