I was so sad to hear of the passing of your mother. I remember her as a warm cheerie person who loved her children unconditionally. My name is Carol MacIntyre/Wakeam and I went to George Peck Public School with Debbie. We joined Brownies and Girl Guides together and somehow our mothers were commissioned to serve on the executive of the Brownies and Guides Parents Association. We also shared time together at my parents cottage with your whole family. It rained the whole weekend, but we still managed to waterski and have lots of fun.
It is my hope that your hearts will soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

My heartfelt sympathy to the entire Proctor family. Your Mum was a true matriarch and cherished all of you for your individuality. More than once, she shared with me how well you looked after her, including her in your celebrations and activities whenever possible, making her visits to your homes accessible and convenient, even arranging to travel with her so she could continue to enjoy her love of travel after your Dad was gone. Jo was so very proud of her children, grandchildren and great- grandchildren. Hers was a life well lived. Cherish your memories.
