Passing of my mother, Ingrid Forrest Boehl, also known as dansker

I know many of you knew my mother, Ingrid Forrest Boehl (dansker). I wanted to let the community here know that she had passed away. We are deeply saddened, but know she is at peace now. Here is a copy of the obituary.

On February 26, 2019, Ingrid Forrest Boehl crossed the rainbow bridge to join God in heaven. She fought a courageous battle with COPD, struggled with complications from a lung transplant, and despite her will to fight her body had grown weary. She was so loved by friends, family, and animals alike. During her lifetime, she touched many lives with her caring and gentle soul.

She is survived by her husband, Robert William Boehl (Bill), her daughters Heather Santerineross, Samantha Lomelino, and Laura Forrest; her step children, Dorothea and Peter Boehl; her beloved grandsons, Erik Stopka and Blaise Darlymple; her son in law Alexander Stopka; her brother Norman Hansen; her niece Tara Hansen; and numerous cousins and extended family members. She will be greatly missed, but we will always carry her in our hearts.
A Celebration of Life will be held at Trinity United Methodist Church in Hackettstown on Sunday March 10, 2019. In lieu of flowers, the family asks for donations in her name to one of the causes she strongly supported, namely: Alley Cat Allies, Popcorn Park, Tabby’s Place, The Gift of Life (family house or main organization), Conserve Wildlife Foundation, Habitat for Humanity, or Trinity United Methodist Church in Hackettstown

I was very honored to have met her in person when I was assisting with her donations of flowers and food for two different causes. She was a fantastic person who only wanted to be healthier so she could help others.

Sincerest condolences to you Laura, as well as the rest of your family.


Laura and family and friends, I am so sorry for the loss of your mom. She was a kind & caring person. She made the best cookies and cared about so many, especially the animals. I will miss her great text messages and emotional support that she always offered. I will treasure her memories and remember her fondly.
