FREEHOLD, N.Y. Helen J. Ingalls passed away on Thursday, January 4, 2018, at St. Peter's Hospital, surrounded by her family. Born at home in South Westerlo, she was the daughter of the late Ernest and Louisa Swartout Campbell. Helen graduated from Greenville Central School, where she was secretary of her senior class. She attended Albany Business College, and later received an associate's degree from Empire State College. Helen operated a day care program in her home, and baked decorated cakes for weddings and birthdays. In the late 1980's, she was the founding director of the day care center at the United Methodist Church of Greenville and Norton Hill. She retired several years ago, but remained on the day care center board through 2017. Helen was a member of the church and UMW, sang in the choir for many years, and served on the administrative board. She greatly enjoyed bowling, sewing, and continued baking cakes as gifts, but her greatest joy came from her 11 grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. Helen is survived by her husband, Stanley R. Ingalls; seven children, Marjorie Powell, Donald (Becky) Powell Jr., Dian (Paul) Spinner, Scott (Jo-Ann) Powell, Megan (John) Lafferty, Genevieve Ingalls (fiance, Thomas Howley), and John (Jeanette) Ingalls; 11 grandchildren and two great-grandchildren; two sisters, Dawn Frees and Loretta (George) Langdon; many nieces, nephews and cousins.
