Mary Catherine Ingalls

mother of 10 " Magnificent" children, friends and host to many that came through "Grand Central Station" (her home) has gone to play "BINGO" and "Pinochle" with GOD and his angels on October 4, 2016. Mary was wife to the late George Howard Ingalls II. She's preceded in her passing by her son, George, daughter, Kathleen, her parents and her 12 brothers and sisters. She leaves her most important job of teaching family lessons of love and unity to her children. "United we Stand! Divided we Fall!" Memories of her smile, laughter and family traditions will forever be cherished by her daughters and sons: Barbara Anderson (Terry), Ronald (Marie Skory), Peggy Clunk, Janet Erwin (Mike), James (Mary Costanzo), John (Marlene Wilson), Michelle Smith (Dean), and April Bell (Tim), Grandma of 46 "Trouble Makers" (26 Grandchildren and 20 Great-Grandchildren). Aunt to many nieces and nephews. We would be remiss if we forgot to include Mary's Bingo family. To cherish Mary's loving ways, remember to hold your family close and "Just call to say I Love You!" Mary will be most remembered for the love she gave with bluntness and honesty to everyone. How the simplicity of her faith was always her strength and no one will ever forget her scrumptious cooking. But most of all she shall be remembered as the "BEST" mom anyone can ever have by the "STRONG" family she raised. In lieu of flowers, pay your bills or go to Bingo. Plants and donations will be appreciated. The family will receive friends at CRACIUN BERRY FUNERAL HOME, 7200 Detroit Avenue on Thursday, October 6, 2016 from 6-8 pm and Friday, October 7, 2016 from 11-1pm . Friday service is 1pm at FUNERAL Home. Interment Calvary Cemetery 10000 Miles Avenue. All are welcomed to join us at St. Peter and Paul Parish at 4750 Turney Road after the final ceremonies.
