James Allen Ingle Sr.

James Allen Ingle (Major, US Army), 71, of Chester VA, passed away on Thursday, February 4, 2016.

James Ingle (Jim) was born January 29, 1945 to the late Cecil and Onia Mae Ingle. He graduated from Bowling Green University (B.S. History). He joined the US Army in 1967 and obtained the rank of Major. He served honorably including overseas in Vietnam and Thailand. After leaving active duty he became a civilian contractor for the Department of US Army and was awarded a top secret clearance for the work he did in battle logistics, retiring in 2005. Jim Ingle was a member of the Knights of Columbus, taught RCIA classes at Saint Ann’s Catholic Church where he was also a long time member. Mr. Ingle served as the President of Ingle University. He also served as the founder and Board Member of the Power of Pain Foundation. In 2006, Jim co-authored the book The Wisdom of Ingle.

Jim is survived by his two sons Jim Ingle Jr. (Jennifer); Tim Ingle (Sarah); two daughters; Marby Ingle-Levy (Brian); Barby Ingle-Taylor (Ken). He is also survived by his six loving grandchildren who were the light of his life: Jon Hall, Jaylen Levy, Jacob Ingle, Johan Ingle, Bryson Levy, and Cora Ingle.

Although Jim was unable to receive the kidney transplant he needed, more than 150 people will be recipients of his bone and tissue donations. His generous gifts provide hope to other families – hope for a chance at living a healthier, more productive life.

Though he suffered with many illnesses, today Jim has none. He is in Heaven, thanks to the redeeming work of his savior, Jesus Christ. His family and friends can look forward to reuniting with him one day, as it is written: God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.
