Stefanie Ingraham Obituary


Obituary

Stefanie Elizabeth Ingraham was born in Putnam, Connecticut, on June 16, 1971, and died in Estero, Florida, on July 24, 2006.

She is survived by her brother Peter, her friend Christopher Lombard, and her mother and father, Ruth and James Ingraham of Fort Myers.

Stefanie earned a bachelor of science degree from Bryant University in Rhode Island and became a registered nurse in Florida. After serving as a private nurse in Sarasota and in Lee County, she became Director of Nursing at the Willough in Naples. She was a charge nurse at Parkview Medical Center in North Miami Beach and returned to Lee County where she served at Lakeside Pavilion in Naples until her death.

Stef was highly regarded and well liked throughout the medical community of south Florida, east and west coasts. Her sudden and unexpected death left a legion of friends and admirers, patients and colleagues bereaved. We will always love her and never forget her.

A private family service will be arranged by the Kiser Funeral Home. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be directed to the National Institute of Mental Health Gift Fund, 6001 Executive Blvd., Room 8104, MSC 9655, Bethesda, MD 20892-9655. For further information, please visit:
