Ingrid Susan Graf

A true Chicagoan with love of music, arts, literature, culture and social justice. Ingrid was a true sister friend to me during my happiest and darkest moments. I hold on to fond memories of punk shows, art openings, Goodman Theater shows, Glogg at Simon's - a holiday tradition, boating with dear Christopher and our friends on Lake Michigan. Bless your heart Ingrid..I love you.

I was very sad to see that we had lost Ingrid recently. I was lucky enough to be friends with her at St. Ignatius, although as life progressed, we lost touch. She was a true idealist, and clearly one of the few who was able to go on into a life of service to those ideals.

To her friends and family, I am deeply sorry for your loss.

Having known and enjoyed Ingrid as my upstairs neighbor for only 6 years,I give my truly heartfelt sympathy to her family, who were fortunate watch her become the wonderful person she was! 2 years ago she took MY backpack to Central America. 2 months ago she cared for my cat when I left the USA for 3 weeks,and readily offered wine when she, Chris and I swapped tales of the joys of travel... and travelers. She turned me on to Anthony Bourdain, No Reservations. Her ready grin and sparkling eyes...

Ingrid was someone special and I am sorry to hear of her passing. I am glad I got to know her from SICP and riding the el sometimes. It was also a pleasure to give her a ride in the dark either to or from Maywood on the day of our speech meets. She was a sweet, sharp and funny person especially to this underclassman.

I want to express my sympathy at the loss of your loved one. It sounds as if she led a very full and meaningful life. Having lost loved ones myself I know how difficult the days ahead can be. Look to God for the strength that only he can give. 1 Peter 5:10 says, he will make you firm, he will make you strong.
