To the Proctor Family,
I am sorry to hear about your lost. My father always spoke well of Mr. Proctor, he took me to Walkers to buy a car and he was my salesman. when I would see him out at the store he always took time out to talk with me, I think the last time that I saw him we talked about growing tomatoes, he told me what kind of plants he use. I know he will be forever missed.
May God hold you all so close during this time of sorrow.
