Ingeburg Untekoefler Pigmon woke up in the arms of her Lord on October 18th, 2024 at the age of 94.
Inge was born on February 19th, 1930 in Mannheim-Freudenheim, Germany to the late Franz Johann Albert and Margareta Jekel Unterkoefler.

Inge is preceded in death by her parents and husband, her sister Erna (Fred) Goertz and an older sister and brother she will be meeting for the first time in heaven, and two sons-in-law Thomas Norviel and Philip Short.
