Mr. Ingalsbe went to Fremont, Nebraska, in the year 1912, where he was a painter and decorator for some time. He was united with Miss Dessa Smith of Circleville, Kansas, in marriage, on July 4, 1914. They moved to Topeka in 1916, and have resided there ever since. He has followed the profession of painter and decorator until about 18 months ago, when on account of ill health, he was forced to quit labor. He expected to return to work as soon as his health returned, but in this he was disappointed, for his condition grew more serious until his departure.
He was a man of kindly attitudes always willing to help the destitute, and to feed the hungry. No one was ever turned away from his door in the hour of his need.
He was a member of the Painter's and Decorator' Local Union, No. 96, and of the Modern Woodman Lodge of America.
Those who survived him, besides his wife, of the home, are his mother, Mrs. Nettie Ingalsbe of Onaga, Kansas; three sisters, Mrs. W. T. Pettygrove of Oxford, Nebraska, Mrs. F. G. Moser of Tulsa, Oklahoma and Mrs. E. E. Hines of Topeka, Kansas; three brothers, Simpson and Freeman Ingalsbe of Onaga and Riley Ingalsbe of Fort Smith, Arkansas.
Funeral services were held Thursday afternoon at the Wall-Diffendeffer Funeral Home, in Topeka.
His body was laid to rest in Memorial Park, Topeka, but his spirit we commend to God who made it."
