Local woman loses two relatives in Okla. crash

Debarah Krieger lost her grandmother and cousin in the horrific crash

A horrific accident in Oklahoma Sunday afternoon took the lives of four good friends, three from the Toledo area. Debarah Krieger lost her two of her relatives in the crash.

Krieger's 96-year-old grandmother Martha Jacobs was killed and so was her second cousin Christine Fulgham. Friends of the family, Levonne Gantt and Norma Otterstetter were also killed.

The group was driving through Barnsdall, Oklahoma -- north of Tulsa -- when they were hit by an on-coming truck.

Krieger says despite the tragedy she takes comfort in knowing these friends were together. "They were all best friends and they went together so they don't have to miss each other," she said.

Funeral arrangements for Levonne Gantt are being handled by Jasin Funeral Home in Point Place. Newcomber Funeral Home is handling services for Martha Jacobs and Christine Fulgham.
