Inger you are missed so much. You were in my life from the time I was just a baby. You were generous with your heart You were my god mother, a teacher, a friend, and I have many memories of you over the years. The rocking chair of Rosemaling you painted for my eldest son is beautiful, he still has it. Thank you for giving my mom a soft place to land when she was still a girl.
