I will always remember Dr. Procter fondly. He worked tirelessly when I was hospitalized with depression in 1989. The work he did then and after saved my life. I pray that he is resting with our savior now.

Bob was a wonderful, kind, and interesting person. He saved my life, too. May he rest in peace.

I first met Bob circa 1970, at a pond where I was fishing, and he was training Bess, his black Lab. A very kind man. Later on, he became friends with my folks, and came to visit a number of times. I remember crewing for him once or twice as a teenager, on a C-scow, I believe. A wonderful human being. Rest in peace, Bob.

I've known Bob since 1976. He was a good man and a good therapist. He saved my life. Thanks, Bob; I will miss you greatly!

I have fond memories of Bob from the Dog Park in Lawrence. I loved his pup Zach. Bob would sit under the Hedge apple tree with a bike helmet on so that the Hedge Apples wouldn't fall on his head. LOL! I really enjoyed talking to him. May he finally be pain free.
