Not sure what to say?

I met Ingrid at Ketchum Advertising around 1988 when Augusten Burroughs and I were a Junior Art Director/Copywriter team. It was my first real ad job and Ingrid was one of the funniest people I met there. I still have a goofy clay duck that she made for me wearing a santa cap. It's been sitting under my computer monitor for 20 years now. I've thought about her over the years and had even googled her to try to find a contact number so we could reconnect and catch up.
I can't believe I won't...

I met Ingrid in the early 1990's in San Francisco. At first we were simply co-workers, but it was inevitable that we would become friends. How could you not with her? She was a fun-loving, mid-western slang slingin', creative and talented gal. I also had the honor of working on a few video projects with her. She was professional and meticulous. I miss her dearly, but I know that I am a better person from having known her.

Peace Ingrid.

Love,

In Memory of my childhood friend, (((( Ingrid )))))

For Ingrid and her partner of many years:

Hallo, und leibe grusse, are coming to you from me, today.

My mother called today and shared about Ingrid's passing.

I grew up with Ingrid (she was one of my close friends, many moons ago). While living on her family farm (as i did i), i remember her for playing the accordian, the piano and many other things among her repertoire of talents.

I always wondered what became of Ingrid, all those many years ago; and was happy...

I would like to express my deepest sympathies to Ingrid's Mother, Brothers, Sauni, Nicole and Ingrid's extended family. What a beautiful tribute in the Idaho Statesman - truly - Ingrid created a remarkable life for herself and loved many kitties along the way! It is difficult to understand why such a tragedy occurs and such a beautiful woman's life is cut short - but please know I am praying that your hearts and minds are filled with peace and comfort in knowing that Ingrid's suffering on...

I am very proud to have had the opportunity to know Ingrid. Her beautiful soul will live on in her many works and the other souls that she has touched. God bless and God speed Ingrid.

Although I didn't really know Ingrid I've heard many stories about her short life. Abijah spoke highly of her and told us many stories during her vistits to Kuna. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all during this time. I'm sure Ingrid's wraped in Grandpa's arms at this very moment watching over all of you.
