Donald C. Ingram

I remember Don from my time in Florida. He was so very kind, considerate and helpful to me as younger organist. He helped me through many times of confusion and consternation.

Don was not only my God Father, but a great friend of the family! I just found out about his passing, My most sincere condolences to Gene and all of Don's family. He (and his musical talents) will be greatly missed!

I have only the pleasure of having known Don Ingram for a very short time. But in that time, I certainly got a great sense of this man. Learned, talented, kind-hearted, funny, thoroughly delightful are good words to describe him. I got to know him through church & music, the best way! I will remember him fondly, always.
