I really dont know how to start this off, I am just going to write down how I feel. My name is April, I am a nurse in the ER, and I worked with Dr Brazeel. I have been wanting to write something, just havent been able to until today. I got in the truck the other morning to come to work, it was Sunday, our usual work day together. I glanced down and noticed the picture of Dr Brazeel on front of the obituary. I just broke down. The thoughts of his funny story, his bedside manners, the way he would sit at the nurses station and tell stories of the past. He would usually be standing outside when we got to work talking and laughing or we hoped he would be laughing because if not we would be skiddish for a whileLOL. He would go on and on about his plane and the new repairs, when he would get to go up again, his testing, and his daughters and what was going on that week girls your daddy was proud of ya.I would look forward to the days we worked together. This place is so different without him. Just his presence was enough to let you know he was in control and nothing could come thru those doors that he couldnt handle. He was an awesome doctor, teacher and friend. I would take every opportunity to follow him around and learn. He is missed by the whole ER crew. We speak of him on a daily basis. We miss how you could walk into the Dr's office and he would be laying there with one eye opened or playing his XBOX. He always seemed to know when you were 2 steps away from his door. I would like to think we were kindred spirits. Every nurse in this hospital will have a special place in their heart for him. If any of the family is ever in Rayville, please stop by and visit with us, we would love that.

On the few occasions we got to spend time with Dr. Brazeel, he was unpretentious. He and my husband, Howard, talked forever about aviation. A passion they shared. Dr. Brazeel insisted my kids call him Steve. He was inclusive of them. They liked him and hoped he would be their uncle someday. They love Butterbean and play with her as often as they can.

One of the greatest men I've known. End of story. Humble, sincere, hyperintelligent, eloquent, wise-beyond-years and absolutely selfless. And talk about a sense of humor...this guy was hilarious. Definitely worth modeling a life after. I could possibly waste all of the binary code available explaining all he's done to help me, so I just won't. Steve would have laughed about this, so I'll say it: Einstein once said while probably vainly attempting to comfort another's loss that time is simply a persistently stubborn illusion. I would describe Steve and his effect on myself and many others' lives as 'timeless', for sure. Love ya, Steve Jack

Dear family, May God comfort you in your loss of a great man. Steve was my preceptor in medical school. Upon my first meeting of him, I found him to be such a positive influence in terms of his knowledge, acumen, and professional mentoring. He was truly a cut above. He could have pursued any medical specialty, but chose to devote himself as a medical gatekeeper for the masses. His patients were indeed blessed to have experienced his devotion and competence in their care. God has a special physician in his midst, and He must have needed his services, even in Heaven. I humbly extend my thoughts and prayers to you in this difficult time. Godspeed, Scott Zentner

Love is friendship that has caught fire. Steve was my love and my good friend. Steve strived to live one day at a time and helped me live in the moments when we were together. He was happy with where his life was going. He like being able to act goofy and just have fun. He knew when to be serious. He would say I'm just a regular guy that happens to be a doctor. He loved to cook, read, and write. He was working on a novel. He also loved his little dachshund, Butterbean. One of his favorite things to do was fly his plane. He felt free when he was flying, he was at peace in the air. I am happy that I was able to experience flying with him. Most of all he loved his girls and was so proud of their accomplishments. Steve meant the world to me, I love, adore and respect him. He was understanding, a great listener and was easy going. A true man of character. He will be missed by so many. I am so very grateful for the time we had together. I once said to him, "You're a good man Steve," he replied. "That all I want to be." Love you Jean XOXOXO

Please accept my deepest sympathies for your loss. The lost of a love one is the most painful experience we have in life. There is a void that cannot be filled. Rest assured the Bible promises we will hold them again and enjoy their smiling faces forever. It is God's purpose that no one dies ever again and everyone live on earth in Paradise.

In the Fall of 1973 I found myself in a strange city - far from my home to begin my education at the University of Arkansas. I was basically alone up there - for the most part a lonely, scared and stupid kid just trying to find his way in the world. To my great good fortune I lived in a dormitory and on a particular floor populated by a small group of graduates from Warren High School. To that point, I knew of Warren only as the Pink Tomato Capitol of the world. These guys Wallis Marsh, his brother Blake and Steve welcomed me into their group and I quickly became great friends with all of them. Steve and I had a particular bond in that we were both Air Force brats and swimmers. I can't count the hours Steve and I spent on the tennis courts at Fayetteville. I have not kept in touch with any of these guys since Fayetteville, but I think of them often and am, to this day, proud to have known them all. I remember so clearly taking Steve and Wallis to my home in north Pulaski County and, of course, they took me to Warren. Steve and Wallis were so proud to show off such local landmarks as the Wag and Bag convenience store. I am so very saddened to hear of Steve's passing. I recently lost my younger brother and can imagine what his family is going through. The character, intellect and compassionate nature that I knew from Steve over 30 years ago are characteristics that never change in a man - no matter the amount of time that has transpired. I want to express my deep sorrow to his daughters and other family members and friends. I know you are all missing a wonderful man who touched so many lives - just as he did mine. Joseph Elliott

I had the privilege to talk to Dr. Brazeel 2 wks ago never knowing it would be our last goodbye. He was so very happy and as he said "in a good place in my life". We had a professional relationship he hired me at St. Francis as a nurse practitioner which grew to a "brother-sister" relationship. I also am one of the many people who called him, friend. He touched my life and was my mentor. He was a visionary and a change agent when it came to health care. He was unafraid to go against the norms, which sometimes made people uncomfortable, he knew that but he would push forward anyway. I will never forget his encouragement nor his friendship. My condolences to the girls, he loved you very much & always was so proud, we never had a conversation that he didn't discuss his "girls". To the Brazeel family, all he ever wanted to do was make a difference, and I believe he did, he will be greatly missed. To Jane, words can't expressed my grief and shock, my condolences to you.

I had the privilege to talk to Dr. Brazeel 2 wks ago never knowing it would be our last goodbye. He was so very happy and as he said "in a good place in my life". We had a professional relationship he hired me at St. Francis as a nurse practitioner which grew to a "brother-sister" relationship. I also am one of the many people who called him, friend. He touched my life and was my mentor. He was a visionary and a change agent when it came to health care. He was unafraid to go against the norms, which sometimes made people uncomfortable, he knew that but he would push forward anyway. I will never forget his encouragement nor his friendship. My condolences to the girls, he loved you very much & always was so proud, we never had a conversation that he didn't discuss his "girls". To the Brazeel family, all he ever wanted to do was make a difference, and I believe he did, he will be greatly missed. To Jane, words can't expressed my grief and shock, my condolences to you.
Peace of mind is a call away. We're here when you need us most.

I am so sorry for your loss. Dr. Brazeel was my doctor and was a very caring, compassionate and concerned individual, even outside of the office. I will always hold a special place in my heart for him. He diagnosed me with SLE "Lupus" within a few weeks, and it is known that in most instances it takes years to diagnose. My prayers are with his family, especially his daughers, Caroline, Sean, Stephanie and thier mother my doctor Dr.Mickey.

I had the honor to work for Dr. Brazeel during his years of private practice. He had a kind heart and enjoyed practicing medicine. He always went beyond to make sure his patients, his employees, and their families were happy and well care for. Dr. B. loved to teach and made a great impact on my life. I thank him for making me the nurse that I am today. I pray God will comfort his three beautiful girls and his family during this time of loss. Dr. B. will be greatly missed and never forgotten.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the family of Dr Brazeel. He was my Doctor and my boss when we worked in Administration at St Francis Medical Center. He always had words of encouragement for me as we managed many of the Clinical areas of the Hospital. He was always cool and collected, and I really enjoyed working with him. As a Physician he had an excellent bed side manner, and his patients loved him. May God Bless his Family in this very difficult time.

To All of Dr. Brazeel's Family, There are no words that can ever express the great loss that I nor any of the other Richardson Medical Center employees feel at this time.I cannot imagine the loss that each of you are feeling during this time of sorrow. Dr. Brazeel was always the "doctor" that any patient would want or need. I know that God has a special need for another "Great Doctor" at his table. We will miss him so much! My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Yours in caring Betty Hill, RN
