Condolences to Tori's family. She was one of my favorite students. Always smiling, always present, always hard working. I took the time to attend a VSU volleyball game to watch her play. What a beautiful person and spirit. Rest in peace.

Tori and I met during her visit for volleyball, we instantly bonded over both being from the same area and our love for The Weeknd. Once school started that was all she wrote Tori, Kenn, Jas, Mikayla and I were inseparable. When you saw one of us you saw all of us. My favorite memories of Tori are late night drives to cookout screaming old Weeknd songs. Tori always being down and supportive of our decisions no matter how crazy. Of course volleyball games she’s forever my setter ❤️, And our infamous trip to Mexico. Tori and I crossed our sororities in the same year and it was so nice to see her mold herself into the person she said she wanted to be. Tori lived everyday to the fullest and made sure everyone around her had a great time too. Tori was a big piece of the best years of my life and I am going to miss her everyday. 

I met her randomly one day in Jones Dining Hall where we began our friendship as we were beginning our freshman year at Virginia State University she was a good friend of mine and she will always be one of my favorite Zetas and Volleyball Players.

My memories range from birthday parties, to dinners at Ryan’s to emergency sleepovers while Ed was at the hospital. Tori was kind, respectful, fun, energetic, smart, confident and so much more! She was as coined at the service, “The Great Unifier.” She was a tornado of energy, love and passion! Tori you’re loved and remembered! Love, Curtis, Lorrie & Mama Shirley

Ed,  Amber, & E. Our family  want you to know how torn we are over the passing of Tori. Living next door to you for so long we truly feel like she was part of our family and we want you to know how devastated we are. Still, we are here for you and will always be there for support and encouragement as you try to may sense of everything and overcome your pain and suffering . Remember, If you need anything don’t hesitate to call or knock on our door. That’s what  neighbors are for. Wishing you the best ~ from our family to yours.

i met tori in 2016 when she came to oklahoma for a semester / summer. we first met & worked together at sonic. she was my friend ever since then. i will always cherish the memories i have of her & the times we got to catch up when she came to visit oklahoma. i will miss seeing her snapchat stories & witnessing all her beautiful adventures. i will forever miss her name popping up on my phone.  i love you tori❤️ 

She was a beautiful person inside and out. Like the butterflies release for her she was to a free spirited individual. She was always ready for the next adventure. She was and is loved by many that will carry her memories and name for a lifetime. Hope she’s resting peacefully in paradise.

Tori, we watched you grow up from a little girl to a beautiful social butterfly. You lived life to the fullest. We will always remember you . Love , Keybo, Ms.Uriel, LaTanya and YoNique . (The crew next door) By the way you have a pair of socks for the next 10 years lol, haha oxoxox

The most formative years of my life were at Virginia State University.  When I think about those days, there are very few stories I can tell that don’t include Tori. 

I met Tori during my Freshman year, when she came to VSU on her recruitment visit.  Little did I know that short visit was the beginning of a beautiful friendship - on and off the court. 

Volleyball brought us together but we were more than teammates.  We were real friends, like sisters.  Tori, Mikayla, Zaria, Jas and I were five peas in pods, always at least two of us at a time. Together we made so many unforgettable memories - always dancing, laughing and celebrating something. 

Like the time Tori and Brealyn were down to take a 3 hour drive with me in the middle of the night to pickup my infamous contraband pet Guinea pigs.  I thought I was going to have to pout to convince her to go, but I didn’t. Tori said, “let’s go!”  
And the time she trusted me to dye her hair - fully aware that I had no experience! I was praying I didn’t mess up but Tori was cool as cucumber - not worried at all.  
our countless “milkshakes dates” at Cookout and all the fun we had at actual cookouts 
Going to the first ever Something in the Water music festival together and our notorious trip to Mexico are memories with Tori that I will treasure forever. 
 
I appreciate that Tori chose to always be sunshine on cloudy days.  She loved everyone. I hold a vision of her bouncing around campus - happy, full of giggles and smiles, dancing and singing.  And this is how I will remember my sweet friend forever. 

I love you and I will see you again <3

I will always remember the night Tori got her nickname "Chipmunk". I don't remember exactly how old we were but we were both in elementary school. She was over at my house and it was pouring outside. We were having the best time playing in the rain! We went back into the garage and we were eating grapes. I remember turning around and she was sitting there with a mouth stuffed full of grapes 😂. From that day on she was known as Chipmunk. I haven't seen Tori since we were both kids (maybe junior high)  but that is how I will always picture her. Little Chipmunk. To Tori's family: Know that forever and always your girls is bring a smile to all of our faces.

To know Tori is to love her. Tori was such an amazing person, beautiful inside and out, understanding, comforting, dependable, and caring. She would do anything for those she loved. She always had a positive attitude and was so fun to be around. We joked about literally everything. I’ll forever cherish all of our crazy memories and spontaneous moments. I’ve never had a friend like Tori, and I never will again. She was truly one of a kind. I’m so grateful that I was able to experience her light, and call her one of my best friends, and my sister. I miss her already, but she will always live on in my heart. I love you Tori.

She was the light in any room she walked into. She gave me some of the best times at VSU, and I gained a forever sister in her. Zeta couldn’t have made us any closer. Her and I were the true example of sisters; we would argue fight kiss and then makeup. I love you forever girly! 

I remember the time she got lost in walmart after taking pictures. 

Tori was a awesome woman and always put in 1000% effort in any events she did on campus... She always spoke kindly walking by every time we saw each other. Just a overall chill person and she stayed motivated.. Rest Peacefully Mamma ..🤍 

We had only met Tori a handful of times, but she is certainly one of a kind. About 2 weeks into the Pandemic in 2020, my friends (led by Tori's parents Amber and Myron) threw an impromptu socially-distanced birthday party for me in a parking lot. Tori showed up with a friend and all the stuff to play beer pong - which she did, with just about everyone...virus concerns or not. Tori lived life with her amp on 11 and her spirit will never die. Our deepest sympathies for the family.

Sincerely,
The Gran family

When my mother passed away almost two years ago now, I had all my friends come over to celebrate her life didn’t matter who was there at the time just come, Tori not even knowing me and I not knowing her she still came up to me and paid her respects and I’ll never forget it because it was with so much sincerity.  So now I’m paying my respects to her mother/family. You can never say the right things when death comes around but she seemed like a ray of sunshine to those she cared for and I hope those memories always stay with you all.  Even though I didn’t know her that memory will always stay with me. I pray you all heal with time and may she Rest In Peace always.🕊🤍

Tori was always full of life, always wanting to enjoy every moment of the day. She was funny, beautiful, energetic, smart & so much more.  i am so glad i was able to call her my sister. Of course we had our mini arguments but we were sisters not by blood but connected by a bond that was so unbreakable! So we would push right pass the bad & focus on the good. There was never a moment she wasn’t showing that wonderful smile off, i could say so much more but i love you so much Tori it saddens me so much that the last time i saw you was at slice working, i wish we had more time together, but i know you will forever be in my heart and i love you Einstein, because girl you knew it all regardless of what anybody said lol. 

Just wanted to say I love  you Tori Renee Holman and I'm so heartbroken your not with us anymore

My Stinke (She hated that word lol) !!! 

My freshmen year roommate, and the first person I've ever lived with besides my family. Victoria encouraged me to be adventurous and unapologetically myself.  I have some pretty great memories with Tori; from her and her mom taking me to get my first tattoo to me having  full conversations with her while she was sleep talking. 

Tori you will forever be missed. PS. I am still working on that book for you! 

I remember being one of mangers for the volleyball team at north stafford highschool. I remember meeting tori she was truly a light and her smile would light up the whole room. You will truly be missed.

She ALWAYS made me feel confident and never stopped giving me compliments. I’ll never forget her cheerful self. 

Tori.. I can't lie, you took a piece of my heart with this one. You were soo amazing and I won't ever forget the love, the laughs, or the cries. I love you forever my girl, your friend always, Tember.

I did not know of her but as an North Stafford Alumni, VSU Alumni, and Soror of Zeta Phi Beta,  I wish we would have met but I know she was an amazing person by all the great things she has done and all the people lives she touched. Rest in Paradise my blutiful soror. 💙🤍

Tori is the most loyal, loving, and high energy friend ever. No matter what Tori was always there! I’m throwing a birthday party she’s there, i wanna go on vacation she’s there, I’m in trouble she’s there. Words can’t explain how much i love her and all the memories we have made. I don’t think i will ever find a friend like Tori in this lifetime and i don’t want to. She will always have a special part in my heart that can never be replaced. 

I remember when me an Tori went to “Rolling Loud” & it was actually my first time but she new the ropes ! I unfortunately drunk a little to much an became unstable .... meaning unable to stand or communicate lol! She noticed we hadn’t eaten all day but we were drinking like crazy & just had road on the drop zone , so she went to get us some quick food , she asked the two people aka party scavengers we met to watch me while she went to grab it !they lost me !  When she came back I was gone lol someone said “ are you looking for a guy?!” She’s like “yesss” an then she see’s me laying in the grass where she laid with me for an hour & a half lol ! I could only spot hear an see  things but I remember her saying to me once the officers came an tried to take me 
Her” baby , if you do anything pleaseeee get up for a few seconds pleaseee” 
Meanwhile she’s throwing extremely cold water on my face ! So then I rise up slowly but surely an she’s like “yes, YES Thank you ! Then I just fell forward on my face 😂 
But hey , the next morning all the vendors remembered me an let us cut every line yelling “ aye , your still alive ?! I’m like “i don’t wanna talk about it ! 
Vendor : come eat don’t think to much ! Lol true story !

So sorry to hear of your passing sweet dove. Although I did not know you, you are my Soror, my sister. Condolences to your family and close friends.

Rest easy sweet dove 🕊💙
Finer Forever ♾ 
Soror Kimberly Chapman-Birmingham, Alabama

I did not know her well, but I knew of her, I knew she gave it her all in everything she did. So sorry for the loss of this beautiful young lady. So sorry for the family who is hurting. I’ll keep you in my prayers
