Pallbearers carried Brooks' gold-colored coffin into the church, which was the Rev Martin Luther King Jr's congregation, about an hour before the viewing began at 3pm. Minutes later Brooks' widow, Tomika Miller, arrived surrounded by loved ones who escorted her in as she appeared to wipe away a tear. Emblazoned on Miller's customized white dress was a photo of her with Brooks. Inside the church, Brooks' body was put on display wearing a pristine white tuxedo with gold accents.
