Uncle Doug, our families shared so much together. Aunt Camille, Jim, Bill, Debbie, and Tom, now that my dad is making his journey, it is nice to know that he and your dad will be setting up the bridge table and reminishing old times together again.

Wish I could have been there to see you all.  The entire Brace family, "Uncle Doug,"  Gregg Little League games, and the many family gatherings with the Brantleys, Braces, Barkers and Stitts still hold many fond memories. Sheryl Brantley Latham (Dallas Tx)

Thank you for your warm thoughts during our time of sorrow.  A special thanks to those who where able to join us in our celebration of the life of Douglas A. Brace.  We are truly blessed.  

Dad was the best father a son could ever ask for.  He was always there for advice and continued to look out for me even when I thought I had it all figured out.  He taught me respect and gave me the foundation to build my life upon.  I have many fond memories which will stay in my heart forever including the countless hours of batting practice in the back yard.  Never once did Dad say he was too tired after work to play with his son.  He was a great man and I'm honored to have him as my father.  You'll be in our hearts forever.

My heart felt condolences to the Brace family. I was fortunate to have had Mr. Brace as my Little League coach at Gregg Little League. We won several championships with his coaching. He was the best and my memories are full of his quiet patience with us.(not so much Jimmy :)) Just kidding. He was loved by all of us kids he devoted to so unselfishly. He is one of the few men I think back on that had a positive impact on my life as I was growing up.

I had the pleasure of knowing Doug through a weekly bridge group.  I'll always remember his warm smile, hearty laugh, and finesse playing the game ... as well as his determination to make the hand!   Fun times together.  Camille, you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Love and Hugs,

Doug Brace was a father figure to me...When I was in my early teens my parents were divorced, my dad was in Colorado, my mom in Washington DC...I had no one to guide me - Doug (Mr. Brace) was someone to answer to, along with my best friend Bill (his son) - Mr. Brace kept us "boys" in line! Doug Brace is gone, but his memory lives forever!!! Thanks for teaching me a few life lessons that will forever direct my future.

We will always cherish the fond memories of our family times together.  Please accept our deepest sympathy with love and blessings to Camille, Tom, Jim, Debbie, Bill and all the family.

Hugh and Lou

 To the entire Brace Family, Our fondest memories and deepest regrets to all of you.You all were such an integral part of our growing up, having fun, and enjoyable vacations.

Velana and Angelo Pulido and family, Blaine Barker "Dude", Biff and Terri Barker and family.

Dear Brace Family,
May the good Lord bless you and hold you in his loving arms at this sad time of loss.  I am the oldest daughter of Joe and Sybil Danna and have fond memories of Daddy often beginning a story with "Doug Brace and I..."  Our Danna Family home movies include a trip to Galveston with Tommy and I as toddelers playing in the water(and the mud!)together.
Please take comfort in knowing that Doug has now seen the Face of God...
