This is one of the hardest 'see you later' messages I've ever written. I've known & loved Toshia since junior high school. To Jeff, Tariq and the entire family my sincerest condolences and prayers are with you all. Praying God grant you all strength, comfort, peace and understanding during this difficult time. Much love being sent to you all.

I’m here, day or night. Just a phone call away. I love you. 

We just so happened to be in Vegas and learned Toshia and the family were living there, so what better to do than meet up and take pictures. 

No matter how far either of us were, she never forgot a birthday and she would always randomly call to check in with me to see how things were going. If I wasn’t in a good place she was able to encourage me. We aren’t blood related but she never let that show and I was always included in as family. For her, I was another little sister, and she never knew that I needed that. I hope she could feel that from me though. My heart aches, along with anyone that was able to know the amazing woman she was. 

Colonel Hoover,
You are a kind and strong leader, and Mrs. Hoover's light shines from you. I am sorry about Natoshia.
Very Respectfully,
Norman

Jeff and Toshia are our good friends.  Chastity and I loved our monthly date nights. Dessert was never missed (we always saved room).  Cookie Monsta was a clutch place if another new restaurant let us down. We love you both! 

Sorry for the loss of your beautiful daughter.  Love,  prayers  and many precious memories be with  the Burks’ family.  God Bless and comfort the family!🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️

Love and laughter!  That is how I will remember you Natoshia!   

Lt. Col. Jeffery Hoover and to the Burks Family please accept  our sympathy on the passing away of your dear wife/daughter.  She may leave this material world but she left behind her good  deeds and lovely memories. 

My prayers go out to the family.  I met Tasha in Las Vegas and she helped save my life.  I will forever be in debted to her.  I love you and you will forever be in my heart.  We never got a chance to reconnect on this side but I will see your face in glory one day.   Rest in peace my friend.

I never had a chance to meet Natoshia, but I would like to offer her entire family my condolences. May God comfort yall during this tough time. 

GOD Bless you and your family, Jeffery, at this time.  May The LORD give you HIS Strength and Peace whenever you call upon HIM and/ or think about your need for HIM.  JESUS will be there to fill the cracks in your heart, as you reflect on your memories with your love, Natoshia.  The HOLY SPIRIT will be there to comfort you every step of the way.

I unfortunately never had an opportunity to meet Natoshia. By the time I started with our office, she was already on an extended leave of absence, battling with all her might. 
By all accounts, Natoshia was a light in any room and the photos that her friends and family have shared here further demonstrate that she genuinely was a bright and caring soul. These pictures make me smile, however bittersweet. 
I regret not reaching out in some way as I am sure we would've gotten along. 
My sincerest condolences to Natoshia's family and friends during this challenging time. 
Never forget that you are all loved by so many; more people than you know.

T2, I love your love for life, your creativity,  your big ideas, and most of all your kind loving spirit.  You continue to be a blessing to our family! 
Forever "Tall Tausha" 
 


After many years of not seeing each other. She left Vegas and so did I, but we got together last time she came to San Diego. I am so happy we had that time. You will always be in my heart! 20 plus years of friendship. 

Listening to the song This is how you remind me by Nickelback when I would pick you up from work. We use to blast that song! And girl that dang green  Jeep Cherokee you had.  You all ready know!! I love you Toshia! 💕                     

We will miss you. Always in my heart.  Love you so much.    Michelle (and the Hollins Family)

Natoshia was an amazing co-worker and dear friend!!   She’s been my sounding board over the years and I will truly miss her beautiful soul!! 💕.  My heart goes out to her beautiful family!  They were everything to her!!! 💕

Birthday dinner for Jaiyah and Tariq.
Bf I truly adore you! 

Jeff,

May you see God's light on the path ahead, when the road you walk is dark. May you always hear, even in you hour of sorrow, the gentle singing of the lark. When times are hard may hardness never turn your heart to stone, may you always remember when shadows fall---you do not walk alone.
