Celebrating the Life of Mae Ruth Proctor
On January 26, 2025, our beloved Mae Ruth Proctor transitioned from this life to be with her Heavenly Father. A devoted wife, loving mother, cherished grandmother, great-grandmother, great-great-grandmother, sister, aunt, and dear friend. Ruth’s life was a testament to love, faith, and family. Born on May 28, 1933, to the late Robert Lee and Mary Viola Proctor (Robinson), Ruth was raised on a farm in Pomfret, Maryland, and educated in Charles County Public Schools. On September 30, 1950, she married the love of her life, William “Gus” Roger Proctor, and together they built a legacy of love, raising thirteen children. Though her roots were in Pomfret, Ruth spent most of her life in Prince George’s County, first in Upper Marlboro and later in Clinton. A dedicated homemaker, she thrived in the heart of a large, close-knit family. Her culinary talents were unmatched; her cooking was often imitated but never duplicated. Known affectionately as "Roadrunner," Ruth had a zest for life, enjoying shopping, visiting casinos, traveling the world (Germany, Japan, Portugal, Italy, and beyond), and most of all, spending time with her family. Ruth was an active and dedicated member of several organizations. She was a proud member of the St. John’s Ladies Auxiliary #310, Knights of St. John's International for fifty years, where she held numerous positions and remained engaged until September 2024 at the age of 91. Additionally, she was a member of the St. John’s Senior Lunch Bunch, the MAC Club, and the Camp Springs Senior Activity Center. She leaves behind a loving and devoted family: her thirteen children—Vernell, Arlene (Marty), Connie, Gerald (Barbarann), Sharon (Clarence), Tony (Dee), Elice, Mark (Donna), Peter, Donnalee, Pam (Chris), Michelle, and Rochelle; twenty-seven grandchildren; forty-two great-grandchildren; eight great-great-grandchildren; three brothers—Comillias, Carroll, and Donald; and one sister, Sheila. She is also survived by five sisters-in-law—Donna, Adelaide, Romaine (Tee), Mary, and Shirley—as well as a host of family, friends, and special companions, Lucille, Agnes, and Delores. Ruth is now reunited in eternal rest with her beloved husband, William "Gus"; her parents, Robert Lee and Viola; her brother, Ambrose; her sisters, Dorothy, Diane, and Thelma; and numerous dear relatives and friends Ruth was a woman of deep faith, kindness, and generosity. She lived a life rooted in love and service, always willing to extend a helping hand. Her unwavering devotion to God and her strong Catholic faith guided her through life and inspired all who knew her. She will be remembered as a warmhearted, compassionate, and spirited soul who treasured her family above all. Though she is no longer with us in body, her love, wisdom, and legacy will live on in the hearts of those she touched.
Goodbyes are not forever.
Goodbyes are not the end.
This simply means we’ll miss you.
Until we meet again.
LOVE YOU FROM YOUR CHILDREN
