Wanda Mae Ingels

Wanda Mae Ingels, nee Caldwell, passed away peacefully on January 27, 2024, in St. George, Utah, at the age of 92. Wanda was born on April 26, 1931, in Marlin, Texas, the oldest of five siblings. She was a hardworking and loving person who dedicated her life to her family and friends.

Wanda was a struggling single mother of 2, when she met and married the love of her life, Jim Ingels. They were married for 53 years until Jim's passing in 2013. Wanda also experienced the heartbreaking loss of her son the same year. Despite these challenges, Wanda remained resilient and continued to find joy in life. She had a passion for bowling, gaming, cooking, and taking care of her loved ones. Wanda's infectious laughter brought happiness to everyone around her, and she had an unwavering love for animals.

In her younger years, Wanda embarked on a cross-country trip with her husband on his motorcycle, showcasing her adventurous spirit. After Jim's passing, Wanda's oldest daughter moved to St. George to provide care and support until her final days.

Wanda will be deeply missed by her surviving family members, including her sister Norma Jean Anderson, her daughters Debbie Warner and Sandy Tanner, her granddaughter Monica Deckard, her grandsons Cody Fox and Brian Tanner, and her great-granddaughter Lily Deckard. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband Jim Ingels, her son Zack Stuart, her brother Lewis Caldwell Jr., and her sisters Mary Rose and Peggy Heckman.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made to any pet rescue or adoption organization, as Wanda had a special place in her heart for animals.

Wanda's passing leaves a void in the lives of all who knew her. Her loving spirit, kind heart, and infectious laughter will be cherished and remembered forever. May she rest in peace.
