Paul Ricky ‘Rick’ Ingram

March 29, 2023

Paul Ricky “Rick” Ingram, resident of Church Point, LA, passed away suddenly on Sunday, March 26, 2023, in Long Branch, NJ. Rick was born on July 23, 1957, to the late Jesse and Juanita White Ingram. He lived 65 years of pure joy because his soul was saturated with it. He was a member of Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary Catholic Church. He loved music and took pride in being a member of the church choir.

Rick loved God and his beautiful wife whom he loved with all of his heart. He also loved spending time with his family and friends. He never met a stranger and always had a story to tell to make you laugh. You never walked away from Rick without a smile or without remembering his smile and the joy he brought to your heart.
He enjoyed hunting and sporting clays, but especially fishing. He always had the biggest fish regardless of the size. Rick passed on his love for the outdoors to his only daughter, Jessica.
