I need more info,
but right now I think your lockup converter is having a problem
more detail.
this is a scenario of a lock up converter problem.
Car drives fine around town,
But after you come to a stop after going 55 or more the engine jerks and dies. Like what would happen if you stopped a car with a manual transmission while in gear.
you should be able to restart the car in Park like normal.
is this what is happening?
bang on around town no issues under light breaking
come off the highway break run rough and stalls just started this weekend
what am i faced with regarding cost
are you going to buy the parts and do the work yourself or have a shop do it?

will to bring it to a shop to have the work done
I can only give you an estimate for a shop in my neighborhood.
Different parts of the country have different labor rates. and depending on where they buy their parts will have an effect on the final price as well.
If you are in the central Mid-west (Kansas and Missouri)
And the problem is the lock up solenoid, then expect a bill of $600.00
