A native of Alamance County, she was born November 22, 1955 to the late Billy Earl Overman and Lena Grace Gentry Overman and was the wife of 44 years to Robert Lee Whitehead, Jr. of the home.
Debbie was employed with ARMC and other medical companies during her lengthy career in the healthcare industry. In her spare time, she enjoyed knitting, crocheting and oil painting.

Survivors include her husband, Robert; sons, Robert C. Whitehead (Jennifer), Johnathon “Mikey” Whitehead; daughter, Leslie Shoffner (Jacob Harrelson); grandchildren, RJ, Violet and Mykah Whitehead, Dylan, Coltyn, Bayley and Mallory Shoffner; brother, Billy Wayne Overman, Sr.; sister, Misty Bailey (Brandon), Angel Overman and numerous nieces, nephews and extended family. She was preceded in death by her parents; a son, Billy Steve Whitehead; brother, Joe Overman and sister, Karen Jeffries.
A service to celebrate her life will be held at 2:00pm on Friday, March 27, 2026 at Lowe Funeral Home Chapel by Rev. Darrell Gaines with the burial to follow at Gibsonville City Cemetery. The family will receive friends from 12:30 – 1:45 prior to the service at the funeral home and other times at the home.
