Roselyn Catherine Woell Ingram peacefully passed away from natural causes on May 7, 2020 in College Station, Texas at the age of 102.  She was preceded in death by her husband John James Ingram, her parents William and Clara Woell, sister Margaret Woell, brother Louis Woell, and sister Adelbert Woell Ewert Jankowski. In addition to her brother John Woell (Rosemary), she is survived by her five children; Bill Ingram, Ann Barton (Joel), Laurel Ford, Mary Jane Winkle (James) and Robin Assarian (Allen). She is also survived by six grandchildren: Ami Palmer May (Chris), Jennifer Ford Yeoman (Tracy), David Barton, Bobby Barton, Allyson Assarian Taylor (Grant) and Kelsey Assarian; eight great grandchildren:  Christopher May (Kayla), Cole Yeoman (Nateley), Chase Yeoman, Ava Barton, Grace Yeoman, Cameron Taylor, Aileen Taylor and Henry Taylor; and three great great grandchildren: Lydia May, Christopher May, and Eliana Yeoman.

Roselyn was born on March 9, 1918 in Browerville, Minnesota. She spent her childhood and youth in Browerville, graduating from Browerville High School, followed by attending Northwestern University in Minneapolis and graduating as a registered nurse. After graduating from Northwestern, she worked as a nurse in Minnesota before moving to California. While in California she met a handsome Navy man by the name of John Ingram and shortly thereafter they were married.  Following his discharge from the Navy, they moved to Taft, Texas where they made their home and reared their family. As a Minnesotan, she often said it took 50 years before being accepted as a Texan. Although shy, she was strong, intelligent and witty. She was whiskey in a teacup!  She was born during the Spanish Flu pandemic and died during the Coronavirus pandemic. At her wish, in lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to your charity of choice or the American Cancer Society. A memorial celebration of life will be held at a later date.
