It is with great sadness that we announce the death of both of our parents, Norman Ingall (1928-2019) and Colleen Bridget (Bain)(1933-2019) on Saturday, June 22, 2019 in Stoney Creek. Married for 65 years and laid to rest in peace together. Lovingly survived by sons Nicholas of Dunnville, Paul and his wife Angie of Burlington and daughter Karen and her husband Dan Bachynski of Red Deer, Alberta. Will be dearly missed by grandchildren Taylor and Travis Bachynski and Jordan Kinsman.
