Sincere condolences to the entire Brace family.  

On behalf of The Gettys Family (Formerly of Tyrone, NY), you have our most sincere condolences. 

“Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his faithful servants.”

Psalm 116:15

Alan was truly, a salt of the earth type of guy, who was kindhearted and friendly to everyone he met.  When I worked at the same market as his wife Cathy back in the '80's, Alan would come in and help me out with my daily work duties with out me asking.  He was that kind of man.  Prayers to Cathy, the family and friends of the Braces. May God bless all of you and help you through this time of sorrow and mourning . Peace to all of you.

I am forever grateful for Allen and his life.  I'm only sorry we didn't meet sooner.   He was a great man, who was pivotal in leading my husband back to a church life . As Christians we may not agree on everything,  but we agree that Jesus is the way and the life.  Allen knew where he was going and had no doubt.  Even in the face of an incredibly difficult situation, he genuinely showed his Love for God, his family, friends and his Country.  God Speed Allen, may your journey be everything you dreamed of.

Have many great memories of summer afternoons spent playing baseball  in the ball field behind one of the local general stores with Lanny and his brothers when we were kids .  A great guy gone to soon. 

     Please accept our Sincere Condolences For the Loss of Your 
Brother. Prayers and Condolences are also being sent to Your
Entire Family.  May God Bless You All!!

It took me seven years of pastoring before I selected my first deacons for nomination. The two men God gave my heart to were unquestionably the right men for the job. One of those men is Al Brace. Al exhibited an unblemished testimony, an unwavering commitment to the Lord, his family and his church and an unparalleled love for His Saviour. He and Cathy are two of the most genuine and precious people I have ever had the high honor of not only knowing, but pastoring. Only eternity and our sweet reunion at the Saviour's feet will heal the hurt and banish the loss we feel at this moment. Armed with the comfort of the Holy Ghost and the hope of Heaven we are committed to pass the time of our sojourning here with the same joy, devotion and integrity that Al did. We miss you immensely and look forward to seeing you again soon. Praying for Cathy, the kids and the grandkids.

I will always be grateful for the life long friendship I  have in  Allen and Cathy.  I will be United forever when I get home with my friends and loved ones. They kept my three children when I had to have emergency surgery on my gallbladder in 96 when we all lived in Texas and worshiped together at Brother John Bryant's church in Portland. I can never repay Cathy but I love her like my sister. 

My  late husband, Floyd Jones, worked with Allen in Ingleside, TX.  We were proud to know him and Cathy.    He was a hard-working Christian man who loved his family.  My condolences to Cathy and the family. RIP, Allen.  

Allen Brace was a rare human being. He was a dedicated husband, father and  friend. He worshipped God with every breath he took.
We have known Allen and Cathy since he and my husband Dennis worked at North Bank Terminal in Ingleside Texas.
We all quickly became friends and have remained so even after the office in Ingleside was closed.
He and Cathy made trips to San Diego from time to time.
Allen was like the big brother for everyone. He was always willing to help a friend or a stranger for that matter, in need.
He was also a very proud Grandpa. When he talked about his grandchildren, his face would just light up.
He was an amazing person and he loved his family more than life.
I know he is sharing his stories of them with his friends and family in Heaven. 
RIP Allen Brace, I am so grateful we all shared time on this earth, and someday we will all be together again, by the grace of God.
Cathy, Christopher, Paul and all of the rest of his loving family, may God hold you in His loving care. 

Alan was a coworker of mine at the Navy base in Panama city Florida.  He was a devout Christian who lived what he preached and it was obvious to those around him. He will be greatly missed. I know where Alan is tonight. No doubt in my mind.
