Debbie Linn Obituary

Such fond memories of our neighborhood fun. A great friend...she is missed. Love to her family.

Debbie and I go way back as one of my first friends when I moved to the area the summer going into 5th grade. We shared many fun times...card games in the wee hours of the night, riding bikes, horses, school fun. We were even roommates after high school for a time. I too am shocked that Debbie has left us...all too soon for sure. She was indeed a friend you could count on and who looked for the positive in those God placed in her life.
My prayers go out to her dad, brother, and children, and the other family and friends who were a part of her life. I will always cherish the fun times we shared...the neighborhood was full of country life and especially enjoyed by Debbie and I with the Thulin and Turpeinen families.
May her spirit live strong in the hearts of all those she leaves behind. Sincerely and with heartfelt love, Debbie Nelson (jJohnson)

I was so shocked to see the Debbie had passed away! Gary and I want to let Michelle, Lindsay and Jarod know that we are so sorry! Your mom was a huge part of all the time spent sitting in bleachers watching Lindsay play basketball with Kelli. There was no lack of her talking about ALL her kids. Remember the trip to the beach? Good memories. Our prayers will be that you spend the next months remembering just that, good memories! She was in our High School years at Battle Ground as well. Always complimenting everyone, seeing the good in them....

I remember Debbie had such a great smile and laugh. She would always say hi as we passed each other in the hall at Battle Ground HS. My condolences to her family.

I haven't seen Debbie in a number of years, but have always held a warm spot in my heart for her because of the way she welcomed me when I was new to this area. I had moved to Battle Ground from southern California with my kids, while my husband remained behind to sell our house. I didn't know a soul anywhere around here. I got a job at the school where Debbie worked. We didn't actually work together, but we had kids the same age, and she was so friendly to me. After knowing her only 2 months, when Christmas time came around, she invited me and my kids to spend Christmas with her family in case we weren't able to get down to be with our own relatives. What a wonderful person she was, and so much fun to be around. I remember her fondly and send my sincere condolences to her family.

Debbie will be missed!! Such a fun and thoughtful person.I never saw her not smiling.Prayers for her family.R I P Debbie

I remember Debbie as an upbeat and positive person that loved to laugh and have fun. She was always concerned about other people before herself, a rare quality in a person, it seems, today. Our community has lost a great lady. My deepest heartfelt condolences to her family and friends.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the family. I remember after high school her brother Doug and I lived with her for a short time while we were getting started in our own lives. She was like an older sister to me at that time always looking out for us. RIP Debbie.

We will miss Debbie here at Washington Elementary. She was always so bright & sunny and could make you smile with her generous & thoughtful way. Her family is in our thoughts.

Debbie and I had some fun times together during our school yrs. My thoughts and prayers to her family.
