WHEREAS, Family and friends were deeply saddened by the |
|
|
passing of John D. Ingram of Dallas on February 16, 2019, at the age |
|
|
of 84; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The son of Alton and Nancy Ingram, John Ingram was |
|
|
born on April 3, 1934, in Gary and grew up with seven siblings, |
|
|
Virty, Rebecca, Jesse, Paul, Benjamin, Dorothy, and Clarice; he |
|
|
graduated from H. B. Pemberton High School in Marshall in 1953 and |
|
|
entered the U.S. Army three years later; he went on to enjoy a |
|
|
successful career that included working for Braniff Airways and |
|
|
Skeffington's Formalwear, and he subsequently opened his own |
|
|
company, Mr. Formal Tuxedo; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, In 1956, Mr. Ingram wed Marie Parker, and after that |
|
|
marriage ended, he was fortunate enough to find love again with Joan |
|
|
Baty, whom he married in 1969; he was the proud father of seven |
|
|
children, Sabrina, Demetrius, Sharmane, Johnetta, Larry, Bonita, |
|
|
and Rodney, and as the years passed, he was further blessed with |
|
|
four grandchildren, DeRoderick, Christopher, Nicholas, and Ryan, |
|
|
and a great-grandchild, Dakota; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Strong in his faith, Mr. Ingram was a devoted |
|
|
congregant of Concord Church; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, While his loss is difficult to bear, John Ingram |
|
|
leaves behind numerous friends and loved ones whose lives are far |
|
|
richer for having known him, and he will always hold a treasured |
|
|
place in their hearts; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 86th Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby pay tribute to the memory of John D. Ingram and |
|
|
extend sincere condolences to all who mourn his passing; and, be it |
|
|
further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
|
prepared for his family and that when the Texas House of |
|
|
Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of John |
|
|
Ingram. |
