Joellyn C. “Jody” Ingalls passed away in Baton Rouge, Louisiana on Tuesday, August 26, 2025, at the age of 75. She was born on January 27, 1950, in Baton Rouge to Joe Anthony Corby and Josephine Losavio Corby. A 1968 graduate of Robert E. Lee High School, Jody retired from CDI Engineering Solutions after years of dedicated service.
Jody is preceded in death by her parents; her husband of 30 years, Richard “Dick” Ingalls; her parents-in-law Brad and Fran Ingalls; and her brothers-in-law, Chester Martin and James “Jim” Ingalls.
She is survived by her loving daughters, Amanda Lee and her husband Carter, and Kelli Ingalls; her beloved grandchildren, Gabby and Garrett Lee, and Bryce and Bailey Tremblay - who affectionately called her “Granny” and in later years that became “Graham Cracker”. She is also survived by her sister Connie Martin; her brother Peter Corby and his wife Libby; her nieces Nikki Gifford, Jennie Martin, Alex Fraser and Meredith Conner, as well as numerous other loving family and friends.
The family would like to express their heartfelt appreciation to the staff and nurses at The Carpenter House of St. Joseph Hospice in Baton Rouge for their compassionate care.
Jody could always be found with a warm cup of coffee in hand, and some of her favorite snacks nearby. She enjoyed reading, puzzles and the random game night, especially at Christmas! Jody’s family meant the world to her. The time spent with her daughters and grandchildren provided countless memories that they will forever cherish.
Private services will be held on Tuesday, September 2, 2025.
