James Ray Brizendine

My deepest condolences to the entire Brizendine family on James' passing.

Being part of the Brizendine's family of friends for 50+ years has been one of God's richest blessings for me and my family.

I pray that the faith, love, trust and support that you have given so many of us will be overflowing in this difficult time of mourning the passing of such a wonderful son, husband, father, grandfather and friend.

I fondly remember James' trying to help me get Kim, who was playing, out from under the temporary building during one of Sunset's vacation Bible Schools.

Yes, I believe Life is a cycle and I know the spirit of this wonderful man and his family lives in the lives and memories of a multitude.

My love, appreciation and prayers to the entire Brizendine Family.

Kitten I am so sorry for your loss. You and your family are in my prayers.

My deepest condolences to you Kitten and to your family. I can't even imagine what it must be like for you at this time but know that your amazing faith will see you through the days ahead.
God's peace and comfort to you and to all who are sharing your deep loss.

We have had the priveledge of knowing the Brizendine family through my brother's marrige to Karen, James' sister. Our thoughts and prayers are with one of the most loving, caring and delightful families we could ever know.

Having know James since Kitten married him, his quiet presence and love for life will be missed by all who had the priveledge of knowing him. May God keep the family close during this tough and difficult time. Prayers go out to Kitten, Heather, and every member of the family.
Our Deepest Sympathy,

This article expounds James' love for his wife. I guess the fruit does not fall very far from the tree. I once worked for Bill Brizendine and the thing I remember the most was his love for Radien and his family. I was amazed that every day at lunch time Bill talked on the phone with Radien and Paul, who was just a little boy. I remember about Paul having his tonsils removed and the "what do you want walls?" episode. I often tell the story and still laugh at it, after 40 years.

Life is a cycle, and I am eternally amazed that no matter how fleetingly people come into and go out of your life, some leave memories that last forever.

God bless you Bill and Radien and I pray that God sustains you in this period of deepest grief.
