I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Mr. Brazeal. I have such happy memories of he and Mrs. Brazeal from my earliest childhood memories. He was a wonderful lifelong friend of my Dad, Marshall. He was a great friend to our Mother, Rae, especially during her illness last year. I am sure there is much rejoicing in Heaven this day. God bless and keep him, and love and peace to all of his family.
Much love, Scooter

I could write a book about the many ways Coach has touched my life. Sitting in his office in the old gym, having him share his wisdom is my favorite. He was a great teacher that loved teaching but some of his greatest teaching came outside of the classroom. Coach taught me about life and for that, I will be forever grateful! Chris Mitchell

I have nothing but great memories of Coach Brazeal. From watching him draw winning plays on an old chalk board in his cramped office to the more important life lessons he instilled in each and everyone of us, I am grateful. Mine and Diane's prayers are with each member of his family.

I have such wonderful memories of Ms Sylvia and Mr Jerry. It's good to have known such a caring family and both of you taught me good morals, and that's what our society is lacking today..May God Bless each of you always!

First thing that comes to mind when I think about Coach Brazeal is Driver's Ed and our many trips by the Dairy King during those classes. Awesome man with a heart of gold.

An alumni of RCHS, graduating with the class of 1973; I’ve always had the greatest respect for Coach Brazeal. A polished and distinguished educator, Coach Brazeal’s academic instructions and teaching style invigorated students during science class. Even now, some 45 years later, I remember your commanding presents in the classroom. Coach, I have never forgotten the lifelike examples you often gave of Newton’s Law of Motion and the demonstration of Earth rotating on its axis. Sir, on this day, I honor your contributions for my academic success. Thank you!

To the Brazeal Family, May God have Mercy on you all during this very difficult time. Coach Brazeal was one of the best teachers I ever had. He was always willing to sit and talk about life and especially basketball. God Bless you all.

Jerry was my instructing teacher for my practicum at RCHS in 1969. He gave me the reins for the classes and stepped back and mentored me as I went through my learning process. I will always remember him, Mrs. Brazeal and all of the children. May God walk with you through this loss. Just know that his spirit is already living with Jesus.

Sylvia, I wanted to say how sorry I am for your loss. I loved Coach so much and have many great memories from high school from both of you. I really appreciate the leadership you provided when I was a young woman and his expertise in Chemistry that helped so much in my nursing career. You are in my prayers.

I will never forget your kindness and stories you told of the family.
Stories that means so very much about our heritage and future generations.
Those stories are bannered with hope for the future. I hoping to hear more and that this is a beginning.
I'm expecting you to drive me around again as you did in Randolph County one day... that glorious day. No doubt you are there just laughing and having a big time.

I remember "Coach Brazeal" and his fine family very well. I missed that he had passed until my Mother recently passed. I was viewing the past obituaries and just wanted to say that I had a lot of respect for Mr. Brazeal and all the family. It's been a year since Mr. Brazeal has been with the Lord and I know that all the family and friends still miss him very much. God bless the Brazeal family! -- Jeff
