Dr. Proano gave us much needed medical with my son without charge to our family at a time when we needed help desperately. He cared. He always cared. God bless him and his family...Pamela Allison.

Enjoying the Timbers!

God Bless Doc and his loved ones! Inspiring, joyful, kind, positive, passionate! "Give it to the speedy winger!" Held by us in such High Regard!

My sympathy to Bea and the Proano children.

I was honored to have visited Dr. P. and Bea in the past year after working for him and knowing the family in the 1970s.

Indeed, he brought many firsts to his community - in compassionate medical care (few know the long hours he put in) and in youth development programs.

His dedication to his family was obvious and unwavering.

Being his office manager and working with the Columbia View Hospital staff was one of my best...

Thanks for these kind condolences and expressions of gratitude my father's life!

The psychiatric profession has lost an incredible physician. I had the joy of working with Gus for many years . He will be missed!

Our thoughts, prayers and condolences go out to the Proano family. 'Doc' Proano was a soccer pioneer, a dedicated family man and a pillar of the community. He will be greatly missed but his legacy will be a family, a sport, friends and a community whom he served with great dedication, passion and love.

R.I.P.
