Ingrid is survived by her loving husband Bob Hirschi, daughter Karen Hunter, daughter Maggie Hirschi, daughter Lori Jill Hubbard, and Son Jim Hirschi along with her grandchildren: Aaron, Ashley, Courtney, Carter, Avery, Lyra Brooke, Christian, and Christine. She also leaves behind her great-grandchildren Cadence, Alyssa, and Cambria-Rose, as well as her siblings Doug Dennan and Kim Bridges. Ingrid's family extends to her in-laws and a multitude of nieces and nephews who cherished her dearly.

She will be remembered not only for her altruism but also for her warm smile, vibrant spirit, and the joy she brought to those around her. Ingrid Hirschi's life was a beautiful celebration of love, service, and connection, and she will be missed profoundly by all who had the privilege to know her.
