David Tonchin Saw the show at the Wylotts on 8 Feb 2008. Great band-great show 9 March 2008 - Harrow Ray Hagan | Rhagan4439@comcast.net I knew Debbie before she signed with Glenn Miller. Then we lost track till I moved to Florida. We were planning to get together at her place. I called on the 15th of February to confirm and a lady answered and told me Debbie had died of a heart attack. At first I didn't believe her.Debbie never mentioned any of her health problems but was more concerned with my bad back,etc. Would love to hear from her daughters so I could share a letter that Debbie sent me as well as fond memories. Ray Hagan 22 February 2008 - West Psalm Beach, Fl. Rachel Wrightson I just saw the show last night at the Festival Theatre and had a fantastic time. I probably was the youngest there but a huge fan of the music. 17 February 2008 - Edinburgh, Scotland/Boston, Massachusetts A Friend Jazz vocalist Debbie Lang dies Friday, February 1, 2008 As a jazz vocalist with the revived Glenn Miller Orchestra, Debbie Lang sang "Over the Rainbow" at John F. Kennedy's inaugural ball. Forty years later, she was performing daily at a tiny Gulf station in Bedford, N.Y., that she inherited from her Aunt Dolly. Ms. Lang, formerly of Glen Rock and Hawthorne, died last Friday in Weeki Wachee, Fla., where she resided when she wasn't on her beloved houseboat in Margate. She was 67. The cause was a heart attack, said her daughter, Patricia Ciavolella Burgos of Wanaque. "President Kennedy's ball was one of her best memories," Burgos said. "But her dream was to live on a houseboat. We'd sit there together, overlooking Atlantic City, and she'd look over to me and say, 'Thank you, God, this is just unbelievable.' " 13 February 2008 - northfield Webmaster comments   Very sad to hear this news. If you read down a few messages, you can see that Debbie left us a message here on 12th January informing us of Doc Winters' illness. There is an obituary here: http://legacy.suntimes.com/PressOfAtlanticCity/Obituaries.asp?Page=Notice&PersonID=102275859 A friend Debbie Lang passed away 2 weeks ago in her home town in Florida. I have only know her for a few years and will miss her friendly conversations about her love for music and her recent doctorate. 13 February 2008 - NJ kim slade I went with my mum to the show on the 19th january in the riverfront, it was fantastic and i would definitely go again, if i could have got a ticket i would have gone that evening. 28 January 2008 - newport gwent Rebecca Smith We`ve just come home from your brilliant concert in Newport.
