Ingrid Marianne Lang

Ingrid was born in Celle, Germany in 1947. She, her brother Bernd, and parents immigrated to Canada in 1952 and took up residence in Prince George.

Those who knew Ingrid would describe her as kind, giving, warm, selfless, loyal in friendship, intelligent, logical and one who possessed a spirited nature.

She became a Type 1 diabetic at the age of 12 and battled 63 years against this disease. At 65 years of age, Ingrid was a recipient of a kidney transplant. Over the last 10 years of her life, Ingrid had many mountains to climb, a few nasty strokes and finally the last mountain which was her Everest, ‘aspiration pneumonia’. Ingrid passed on March 6, 2023 with her husband Rick by her bedside.

Ingrid and Rick eloped and got married in Kyoto, Japan and had been married for 52 years. They knew each other as children and lived in the same area in Prince George. They were the living example of ‘soulmates’.

All who knew Ingrid will remember her with love and affection along with her beautiful smile.
