Ina Alexis Fitzhenry

Ina was special person. God gifted her with many talents. My mind goes back to Falfurrias, Texas in the 1950s. She was the able piano accompanist to my less than spectacular singing. My knowing Ina added joy to my life. Ina is now with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. I'll see you at the House, Ina.

It was my joy to grow up with Ina from pre-school at First Baptist Church in Falfurrias until she left for college a year ahead of me. We were debate colleagues in high school and shared friendship and many common interests during the years. I was in perpetual awe of her intellect, musical giftedness, seamstress skills, artistic talents, and grace. I am saddened at her passing and send sincere good wishes to her family.

I had the pleasure of being both a colleague and a friend of Dr Ina while she was a faculty member of both the UVM Psychology Department and the UVM Medical School Section of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. She was a very intelligent woman. She was an expert in Piagetian Cognitive Development who added imensly to the knowledge and skills of psychology and medical school students, as well as, psychiatry residents, child and adolesent fellows and fellow professors in the UVM Department of...

I had Ina for my Early Childhood Development class at UVM, probably in 1979-80. She was a good instructor and I liked her class. Very sorry to hear of her passing. My sympathies to the family.
