Obituary of Ingeborg G. Luckner

Ingeborg G. Luckner "Inge" of Montague passed away with her daughter by her side on April 20, 2025.  She was 97 years old. 

The daughter of the late Betty and Engelbert Klose, she was born on April 29, 1927 in Bernau, Germany.  

Inge dedicated her life to serving others, both through her career and her unwavering commitment to her community. As a skilled beautician, she brought joy and confidence to her clients, often traveling to their homes to provide personalized care with warmth and professionalism. Her passion for her craft was reflected in her longtime memberships with the Hairdresser Association of Port Jervis and the National Association of Cosmetologists.  

A woman of deep faith, Inge was a devoted member of St. Peter’s Lutheran Church in Port Jervis and the Salvation Army, where she actively participated in the Women’s Auxiliary. Her dedication to helping others extended to her work with the National Association of Federal Employees (NARFE), advocating for fellow retirees, and her involvement with the Montague Seniors, where she cherished camaraderie and memories.

Inge's daughter Lucille wishes to thank the staff of Delaware Valley Skilled Nusring for their care and assistance during the end stage of her mother's life.  She also fondly wishes to thank and remember the staff of Stewies Resturant for their kindness and making sure Inge's coffee cup was always full.  

In addition to her parents Inge was predeceased in life by her husband Harold C. Luckner and brother in law Richard Collette.  

Beloved mother of Lucille Luckner who survives at home.  Cherished sister of Gisela Collette of Kenmore, NY.
