RIP Uncle Murphy. Murphy's older sister, Eula Mae & her husband , Richard have been living with me & my husband since January 2016. I showed the video to them three times. Each time, my mother remembered more about Murphy. She looked at his picture and said "I love you , Murphy. You will be missed. I am sorry I didn't get to see you more often." She is 96 and the memory is not good. It warmed my heart to hear her say that. I, too, enjoyed seeing all of the pictures. My heart goes out to the family for the loss of this fine man. However, we know where he has gone & that he is happy with the Lord. God Bless ......

Bro. Brantley was one of the Greatest men that I have known. I have very fond memories of him and Mrs. Exie at Neely Baptist Church in Neely, Ms. There will never be another like you Bro. Brantley. Until we meet again. Ray Dixon
There never will be another "Bro. Brantley" like Murphy Brantley. He believed the Bible and tried to live what he believed to the best of his ability. Only heaven knows the lives and hearts he touched. Loved by many and cherished by those who experienced his faithfulness. Our hearts are saddened but we know this is a "shouting time in glory" for one of God's very own. God bless and be with His precious family.
You and Exie took me as your own in my first years of life you gave me the name Phillip and proceeded to raise me. Fate would not allow you and Exie to keep me and I never knew of the two of you until my late thirties. When I finally met the two of you It was as if I'd always known you. Growing up I always knew I had a prayer warrior doing battle for me everyday but I didn't know till much later that it was you and your lovely Exie. God Bless you Murphy. I can see you now in your transformed body hearing those words we all hope to hear one day "Well done thou good and faithful servant: enter thou into the joy of the Lord..
Love Doyle McCormick Jr. (Phillip)
My sincere condolences to the Brantley family and friends.
Freda, sorry to hear of your fathers passing, praying for you and family during this difficult time.
