I am so sorry to hear about the passing of Ingrid. I enjoyed her so much when she would come to the fitness center to walk at Ingram. Prayers are going up for you and you family. I know she will be missed.

I enjoyed seeing Ingrid when she visited the bookstore at Ingram. I once asked her where she was from and she stated Murfreesboro. That statement was a joke between us and we laughed about it and I would call her Ms. Murfreesboro.

Jimmie, my wife and I will miss her dearly. Amy enjoyed practicing her German with her. I just enjoyed sitting and talking with her about anything. She had a different perspective about almost anything and I learned much from her. We are praying for comfort in your loss. Mike and Amy Curtis
