Francis Ingraham Obituary
He was born in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, of Janet (Gould) Ingraham and the late Francis "Frank" Ingraham I. He was a graduate of Ridgefield High School and SUNY Cobleskill. Skip was a kind man who was invested in his family, and enjoyed others' happiness and spending time with his large and close family. He took pleasure in the simple things in life such as playing cards and reading. Skip will be remembered by his love of The Boston Red Sox, his endless dad jokes, and his conversational manner. He will be remembered by the South United Methodist Church for his faith and service.
Skip leaves behind his wife, Debora (Paddock) Ingraham; daughter and son-in-law, Emily (Ingraham) and Mitch Peterson; son, Francis "Jake" Ingraham III. Skip also leaves behind his brothers, John "Jack" Ingraham, Robert "Bob" Ingraham and Walter Mazurosky, Douglas and Meredith Ingraham; his sisters-in-law, Jackie Paddock, Barbara Paddock; and his brother-in-law, Douglas Paddock; and many other aunts, uncles, nieces, and nephews.

Skip was a dear friend all thru High School. The many hours of playing Monopoly. Helping each other study...Chemistry, Biology. Caring for his chickens when the family was on vacation (Loved the eggs, not the cleanup!) Skips understated quiet humor..He was working on those Dad Jokes WELL before being a dad, and I got the benefit of hearing the them first! He had a helping hand and a kind word for anyone that needed it. He persevered thru all with grace and humor (even thru the hours of learning chemistry). The world was...IS..a better and richer place for having Skip in it. I will always remember my friend.
