Well Goo, I saw you in my dreams not to long ago. You told me you were ok and you were happy. I could look at you and see how healthy and happy you looked. I would do anything to have you back. I miss our daily talks..I miss you telling me to leave your boy alone. Hart and Krystal miss you like you would not believe. They each have their own way of expressing themselves. Hart always asks about you and look at your picture. Krystal writes to you and draws pictures that represent you. I miss you my dear sister...I wish I could turn back time. I love you always.

Hey Angel,
Just wanted to let you know I felt your presence with us last Saturday here in Minnesota. We were down in the Savage, Mn area and stopped at the Tropical Smoothies Cafe to have our favorite. You were there with me,I had a small melt down but loved that you were there! You got us hooked on them and that is the only one in Minnesota so far. We brought one home for Dawn and she just loved it too! The coffee carmel cream one~~~~~~~DELISH!!! LOL!
I miss you still so much. I would love another talk with you........
Know that I will always love you.

Goo,
I miss you more than words could ever express... sometimes i wake up and start to dial your number and it hits me that no matter how many times i call you wont be on the other line to say "hey brat, did you just wake your lazy butt up!" What i wouldnt give to hear you tell me to send me your niece again.. i wish with all my heart that you were back with us. i have a constant ache in my chest and i feel like my heart beats differently now. you knew me like the back of your hand! you were my rock, my support, my best friend, my big sister... and so much more. no matter what happened in our lives no matter how many petty arguments we had, we knew we loved each other and would always be there for each other. i just want you back! i miss and love you so much my beautiful guardian angel sister! i know your watching over us but sometimes knowing that just isnt enough. i love you forever more!

Goo,
I miss you so much, at times I don't know if I can breathe. You were my sister, my best friend. I always knew I loved you but I did not realize how much. I still wake up wanting to hear your voice. I know you are in a heaven but that does not make the pain go away. If I could only have you back. CJ, Krystal and Hart miss you too. I pray constantly that you will come back. Just know I love and miss you with every bone in my body.
Love your big sister,
Jess

What great memories I have of the Owens-Tingle family! Debbie had a cheery personality and a big smile that could light up the room. Family and friends meant the world to her, as did she to all of us who knew and loved her. I was blessed to have both of her sons in my 2nd grade class at Ft. Riley, Ks. and got to know Debbie well through her willingness to volunteer in the classroom and support me in any way possible. Her sons' education was very important to her, and I could always count on Debbie and Doni to assist in their learning at home. Debbie had such a big heart--always taking time to reach out and care for others. I will treasure her memory forever! My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Sending big hugs to Doni, Donald, Christian, and Heather and the rest of the family I have never met. Love to all of you, Mrs. Cook

It was in the last year that I was able to reconnect with Debbie again through facebook. I was really glad to see her posts and pictures as they told of a life that was truly blessed. I'm so glad that I got to see a glimpse of the woman she had become. It was truly amazing!!! I'm sorry for your loss and my thoughts and prayers go out to you!! (Jessica's junior hs bff)

Dear Doni, DJ, Christian and family,
Our prayers are forever with you.
Debbie touched so many of our lives and we are all blessed because of that. I am most grateful to have had her unconditional friendship. And all of the time we spent together, are now cherished and treasured memories; the greatest gifts she could have ever left me with.
May all of our hearts be healed in time, and match the size of Debbie’s large loving heart…because we knew and loved her, and she loved us back!
Until we meet again my dear friend…
Love Hope and the Bates Family,

Debbie was such a great person with a big heart. I will miss my Army sister! Here is a memory that shows what a true friend she was: I had a puppy lab named Whisper and I came home from work one day and just smelled this awful smell when I walked into my house. I went into the bedroom where his crate was and he had messed EVERYWHERE, it was all in the crate and all over the wall - pretty gross. I had to let him out into the backyard somehow, so I just let him out of his crate and he went running through the house and just covering it from head to toe. I called Debbie because my husband was out in the field and I was 2 months pregnant (sensitive to all kinds of smells). She immediately came over and helped me clean up EVERYTHING. Now I don't know about anyone else, but that took a STRONG FRIEND to help with that mess! I will truly miss her - she was one of the best! :)
