I have Known Col. Braswell since I was a rookie Trooper in 1964 ! He Helped Me several times after I was promoted to Post Commander in Cuthbert ! He really went to Bat for Me In 1979 when i had some problems !! NO ONE TREATED ME BETTER THAN Col. BRASWELL !!!! We Are Diminished !

Tom and Carolyn helped me get into traveling back in 96 when I bought my first Harley. We were introduced to many of the wonderful areas to visit on a bike by Tom and Carolyn and they were great company and an absolute pleasure to ride with. I will be left with many memories of the times I had the pleasure of spending with him and Carolyn. A friend forever !

Carolyn and Family, Jack and I are so sorry to hear of the death of Tom. Just know you all are in our thoughts and prayers at this most difficult time of life. I will never forget all the pleasant and good times we all enjoyed together at the bank. When Tom would enter the bank at any point and time he always had a big smile on his face. He was truly an excellent example for all he came in contact with. You two were no doubt a match made from Heaven. You and the children have mine and Jack's deepest sympathy at this most heart breaking time, but we can all rest assured we will meet again at the Lord's appointed time. You were always so sweet to me at the bank and I miss those good ole days. I love you Carolyn and will always cherish our friendship for so many years. In Christ. Jack and Margie.

"Colonel" Tom Braswell, as I always addressed him, was one of the officers that I had the highest respect for. Not only was he one of the very best GSP Commanders that I ever worked under, he also was one of my great friends. My family and I loved him and his wonderful wife Ms. Carolyn.

So sorry to hear my hero has passed. If you ever heard him talk about "Hey Boy" that would be me. First person I met on my first day in Americus when I started in 1976.
Prayers for you all in the coming days.

So many memories of Tom. I always told him I wanted to be just like him when I grow up. When you meet people like Tom and Carolyn you never forget them. It always showed how much he loved and respected you Mrs Carolyn. I have thought about y´all a lot.

So sorry for you loss to your and your family Ms. Carolyn. I remember Tom back during the early 50's (he reminded me during our first patrol together) when my dad had a Cafe in Sylvester and he had a Newspaper route set up next door. A good man I considered my friend during the years we worked together and later as he advanced up through the ranks to Deputy Commissioner. My very best to you and your family..God Bless.
