It is with sadness that we announce Robert Norris Proctor, 86, a 55-year resident of Davidsonville, MD, passed away at his home on September 29, 2023.  Known affectionately as “Pookie”, Robert was born on August 19, 1937 in Melwood, MD to the late William “Kenneth” and Mary “Maggie” Proctor.  He was educated in Prince George’s County and started a 39-year career in 1960 at Whitehall Shell in Bowie as an automobile mechanic.  After his retirement, Robert went to work in 2000 for Giant Food in Edgewater where he worked for 14 years.

Robert had a passion for working on cars, and enjoyed crossword puzzles, neighborhood watch and car counting from his patio, traveling and, most of all, spending time with his family, particularly at his kids’ and grandkids’ events.  He was also a long-time member of Holy Family Catholic Church in Davidsonville.

In addition to his parents, Robert was preceded in death by his five brothers, William “Sonny”, Joseph “Sonny Boy”, Vincent “Sammy”, and Warren Proctor and his sister, Mary “Sis” Newman.  He is survived by his loving wife of 66 years, Shirley Elaine (née Neal) Proctor; two sons, Patrick Proctor (Tina) of Severn, MD and Kevin Proctor (Gina) of Pasadena, MD; four daughters, Denise Sanders (Anthony) of Davidsonville, Cindy Jackson of Pasadena, MD, Kathy Freeman (Jacques) of Crownsville, MD and Letisha Lee of Odenton, MD; one sister, Shirley Neal (Jimmy), one brother, Calvin “Billy” Proctor, and two sisters-in-law, Jean and Viola Proctor.  Robert is also survived by 12 grandchildren, Ketia Kelly (Gary), Keyonna Silva (Errol), Jasmine Jackson, Avery Freeman (Monica), Maurice Jackson, Jordan Williams (David), Kevin Proctor Jr. (Kim), Patrick Proctor Jr., Julian Freeman, Megan Proctor, A.J. Lee, Toni Lee; and 7 great-grandchildren.
