"She had a smile for everyone, a heart as pure as gold, to those who knew and loved her, her memory will never grow old".... To know Mrs. Proctor was to love her; she was like a second mother to me for I respected, appreciated and loved her as a mother. She was a precious jewel and I shall never forget her smile and words of wisdom.

To Terry, Annie, Linda, Marie, Roberta, Mark, John Robert, and Blaine, my sincere and deepest sympathy in the loss of your mother. You loved her, however, God loved her best.

A friend of the family always,

To Momma,

You can see it in their eyes, in tender hugs and long good-byes, a love only moms and daughters know.
To care and understand, lend an ear or hold a hand, and to celebrate the memories they share.
I thank you for your tender care.
Your loving daughter,
Terry
