Read MoreThanks for the kind words. I wasn't expecting to hear from the parents of her former pre-schoolers.

Mrs. Ingels always had a smile and positive words for me and my son Vincent. He still remembers the box of silkworms she gave him to take care of. My sympathy goes to Tom and his family.

Claire Ingels was my Pre-School teacher, she inspired me to a life long love of learning. The impact she has had and will continue to have on this nation by inspiring children will be felt for generations.

Claire Ingels was the Pre-School teacher for all 3 of my children Debbie French Harris age 37. Joshua French 34 and Tim French age 28. She was soft but oh so strong. She passed on her love of learning and made every child and pre-school parent feel special. We will miss you "Our Own Mrs. Ingels"
