So young and beautiful praying for the family and friends. I pray the Holy Spirit will confront you through this difficult time.
We loved Tisha as if she was our on child. We also love all of her brothers and sisters. Tisha loved them too more than anything. Her Mom and Dad was up on top of the list. Her 3 children was her life. She worked hard for them and was very much involved in their school activities. I could go on for hours telling you what a sweet and honest person Tisha was. We are going to miss her smiling face so much but I know she will be looking down from Heaven watching all her family and friends. May God bless all of her family and friends. My niece Tish will forever have a place in her Uncle Herbert and Aunt Shirley”s heart. Rest in piece my sweet ANGEL.

It’s hard to imagine a more beautiful Angel than Natisha. To say that she will be missed is a huge understatement! The entire Drew family is very dear to me. I went to school with Rose (her Mom) & TD ( her Dad) was the minister that married my husband & I. Natisha was in the same class as my son Daniel. They became best friends when they were little. She called me MaMa Sharon & in my heart she was my adopted Daughter. She knew I had a deep bond of love for her! We will see her again in Heaven with our Lord & Savior Jesus Christ ♥️♥️♥️ Prayers for all to have comfort & shared memories of such a beautiful soul! I love each of you! May God bless & keep you!
my deepest sympathy goes out to the family of Naticia Drew she was true genuine spirit and warrior of GOD may we meet again on the otherside

My deepest condolences and prayers go out to the family during this time. Any time I got the chance to come to Vian and had a chance to be around Tish she was always a welcoming and positive person to be around. May she rest in peace and her memories last forever.
