Proctor Snow Evans passed away on Saturday, July 30 in Solana Beach, California following a short illness. He was born in Florida and raised in Kentucky. Although he spent most of his life in the San Francisco Bay Area, he always retained his Southern graciousness. He was drafted into the army at age 18 and served as a MP in the occupation force in Germany, following the allied victory in Europe. After serving, he moved to California and worked in the grocery business for 40 years, including a few years in which he ran his own store, Proctor’s Market, in Burlingame. In retirement he developed many interests including oil painting, woodworking, golf and Masons, but family always came first. He married Shirley Pingpank in 1950 and remained devoted to her until she passed away in 2018. He is survived by his daughter, Linda, two sons, Larry and Dave, six grandchildren, and one great-grandchild.
