Frances Christine Ingram was born in the small town of Idabel, Oklahoma on October 7, 1927. On June 28, 1948, at the young age of 19 years old, she married the love of her life, Eugene "Gene" Larken Ingram. After declaring their vows at City Hall, Frances and Gene hopped in the car and made the long trek to Wyoming.
It was in Casper, Wyoming that she would make her home. From her union with Gene, Frances became a mother to seven children: Don (Julie), Sheila (Terry) Fossberg, Dale (Sue), Kent (Mary/Linda), Michael, Debbie (Phil) Taylor and Brenda (Ray) Van Orden. From her children Frances became the grandmother and great grandmother to many more children.
Frances is preceded in death by her parents, husband and sons Dale and Michael.
If you were to ask her friends and family to describe Frances in one word you would probably get the usual kind, caring, loving and sweet. But Frances was that and so much more. She was the type of woman who everyone considered a mother/grandmother, not just her family. She had a resolute faith in the Lord that was so powerful anyone who surrounded her had their faith grow merely because of her company. She could cook a dinner so delicious it would make a professional chef drool and could bake a cookie that should have been featured in every bakery in America. Finally, she had an inner strength that could not be measured.
