Hugh and Eleanor Ingalls |
American Angus Association® inducts six Angus enthusiasts into the Angus Heritage Foundation.
"A registered Angus owner since he was 12, Hugh Ingalls has been a strong advocate of the breed. From his first heifer calf, which his father, Lawrence, transferred to him in 1942, he has built a cow herd that won the 1983 American Angus Association-Centennial Angus Herd Award.
Ingalls’ grandfather purchased an Angus bull in 1895 with the registration certificate number 19975 and a hand-written pedigree, giving this herd the distinction of being the oldest Angus herd in South Dakota.
He is the only recipient of both the “Stockman of the Year” award and the “Hall of Fame Silver Spur Award” from the Black Hills Stock Show. Ingalls is known as “a true stockman” who has unselfishly volunteered to promote the cattle industry and the Angus breed."
What a blessing these two are to the cattle industry and to our family. We honor their life long diligence and work. Hugh is a cowboy's cowboy and Eleanor is a ranch wife's roll-model. Beside that, they are kind and lovable. Good looking also, I might add.
