Is There a Proctor in the House?!

The following notable person recently added to Wikipedia’s Deaths in 2026 site stands out:

• Wayne Proctor (death announced Feb 15, 2026) American guitarist (We the People)
• Michael Proctor (July 14, 1967 – announced February 12 2026), nicknamed "The General"football player (Sask Roughriders).

The surname Proctor is not common, in fact, I don’t recall hearing the name until now, so for two notable Proctor’sto pass away within just days of each other is no coincidence. We have a “Proctor(x2)” pattern cluster in the works.  Proctor is also an addition to the “Word in Name” pattern cluster, … note its meaning: 

Proctor (a variant of procurator) is a person who takes charge of, or acts for, another

proctor (n.): "one employed to manage the affairs of another," late 14c., contraction of procurator (c. 1300) "steward or manager of a household;" also "a provider" (see procurator). From late 14c. as "one who acts or speaks for another; spokesman, advocate 

• advocate (n.) mid-14c.,…, from Old French avocat "barrister, advocate, spokesman," from Latin advocatus "one called to aid (another); a pleader (on one's behalf), advocate," noun use of past participle of advocare "to call (as witness or adviser), summon, invite; call to aid; invoke," from ad "to" (see ad-) + vocare "to call," which is related to vox (genitive vocis) "voice" (from PIE root *wekw- "to speak").

Proctors were once mostly associated with lawyers/judges and so I thought let’s check out the list of Ministers of Justice in Canada.  From the list two stood out: 

• Ministers of justice and attorneys general
• —Alexander Campbell  (March 9, 1822 – May 24, 1892)                                      (* call)
• —Esioff-Léon Patenaude (12 February 1875 – 7 February 1963) (off lion pat ate ten) 
• — Sean Simon Andrew Fraser (born June 1, 1984) incumbent (sea/sea sear seat… my sigh… and drew… eraser) 

So we have “call” in the name Campbell that connects with the above re proctor/advocate.  So the cryptic communication is — someone who speaks on behalf of another.  So as for Patenaude, Michael Proctor had died on his birthday… and so an addition to the “Timely” pattern cluster, not to mention the “lion” in his name … an addition to the recent “Lion/Roar Theme” pattern cluster.  That in turn is a cryptic connection the mass shooting in Tumbler Ridge British Columbia, (see my recent February 11 post First You Bumble, .. Then Tumble, … Then ROAR)

That Patenaude died on the same month of his birth, is also likely meaningful— a prompt or investigate Wikpedia’s Deaths in 2026 site under February 7th for any cryptic connection: 

• Cabell Tennis, 93, American Episcopal prelate, bishop of Delaware (1986–1997)

His first name is also an addition to the recent “First and Last 2 Letters of Name Makes a Word” pattern cluster, and so making “call”, note from his wiki page:  

• Calvin Cabell Tennis (October 24, 1932 – February 7, 2026)                                (*call)

His middle name Cabell is a cryptic connection to Campbell, that when applying the same “First and Last 2 Letters of Name Makes a Word” pattern cluster, also makes the word “call”, that connects with Proctor/Advocate. 

On visting the Proctor (name) wikipedia page, from the list there are two who are within the perimeters of the formula, with one born in 1999 and the other passing away in 1999:  

• John Proctor (FBI agent) (1926–1999), American FBI agent
• Josh Proctor (born 1999), American football player

Note from their wiki pages:  

• John Hamiter Proctor Jr. (April 19, 1926 – May 30, 1999) 
• Josh Proctor (born March 27, 1999)

The only thing that stands out to me is that May 30 is one off from May 31 (aka “end of May”… end of might… end of me?!).  

Going back to Wayne Proctor, his first name is also an addition to the “Word in Name” pattern cluster and the “Remove a Letter in Name Makes a Word” pattern cluster, and so providing us with “way” and “wane”. 

Googling I locate the film : The Proctor

Note the following main actor and director: Ed Huether (born May 4, 1968) 

His birthday 4 May, is a cryptic “for May”…. May is my first name… Hmmm. 

Also located a wiki page re Doctor Proctor’s Fart Powder.  , that began as a series of children’s books, and then into Doctor Proctor films :
