T. J. was born on August 19, 1928 in Waldron, Arkansas, the son of Herbert Lee Brownfield and Delly Jane Fruen Brownfield. He married Doris Lee Barron on November 19, 1947 in Littlefield, Texas. They were married for 72 years prior to her passing on January 17, 2020. T. J. was a long-time member of New Zion Baptist Church before he began attending Ector Baptist Church. He served as a deacon at both churches. T. J. worked for the Texas Department of Transportation for 33 years. He retired at age 57, hoping he would enjoy a long retirement. His wish came true, he was retired longer than he had worked. He and Doris were always traveling. They wore out an RV or two traveling all over. They would often park the RV close to family and visit or offer to help with anything they needed. T. J. liked playing dominos. He was always handing out nicknames to family and friends. Anyone who knew T. J. would know about his cards. He proudly was an Ambassador for Christ. T. J.'s main goal in life was to witness for Christ and make sure you knew about Christ. He would pass out his cards, with scripture on them, to anyone he met. T. J. loved the Lord and is now enjoying his rewards in Heaven. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him. T. J. was preceded in death by his parents, beloved wife, son, Robert Lee Brownfield, brother, J. T. Brownfield, sisters, May Belvin, Margie Morse, and Ruthie Neal; and grandson, Garrett Rogers.
