This evening there was a memorial gathering to honor Noble S. Proctor in the third floor auditorium of the Yale Peabody Museum of Natural History in New Haven, Connecticut. Hundreds of people came to remember Noble, and touching tributes were given by his entire family and a couple of former students and great friends of Noble’s and ours, Frank Gallo and Patrick Lynch, who took this photo. I would not have had the opportunity to take a photo of this sign-in table by the time I arrived because the entire room was filled to capacity with so many tremendous friends of a wonderful man. It was a lovely evening with everyone paying their respects to Noble, and we will continue working hard to honor him each day.
