Those who knew Foster have also taken to social media to remember her. Tommie Stinson was Foster’s personal fitness trainer for the last year and says she was a pleasure to have as a client.

“A great person and very outgoing, full of life. She was with my 7 o’clock group and when she came in everyone just lit up when she comes and get excited. Everyone loved working out with her and I love training her also,” says Tommie Stinson, of Fit by Stins in Starkville.

Foster would’ve been 24-year-old at the end of this month. The news of her death has left the community confused and shocked by her sudden death.

“I was saddened when I heard that, in disbelief really. She was always the one that said she hates confrontation. She hates a lot of drama. When I heard that happened when she was leaving work, I was really surprised,” Stinson said.

Foster also worked at Weyerhaeuser in Lowndes County. A motive for Foster’s death has not yet been released.
