April was a one of a kind spirit that can never be duplicated or copied in any way. She was truly one of God's awesome miracles that he designed for our family. She is no longer with us physically, but she will always be with us spritually and held deep in our hearts. Even though we will miss her quirkiness, that infectuous laugh, that creative and smart mind and her awesome pool playing, we will look forward to seeing her on the other side. This is definately not the end...but a beginning to a new and happier life for her. We'll love you always, Dad, Lesley,Kasey Kelley, Bobbie and Ebony

April

Deep in my heart is a portrait
More precious than diamonds or gold
It is the memory of a young girl's love
that will never, ever grow old

Her smiling face, the way she laughed
Is eched upon my heart forever
Hidden safe within the deepest part
Until once again we meet each other

This memory of love, so rare and true
Helps to ease even my deepest pain
And just the thought she truly cared
Brings me sunshine through the rain

Still, I have my time of sorrow
And there are few who've seen me weep
But many tears I shed last night
While other's were fast asleep

Oh, God give me strength to bear it
And give me courage as I go
Because how much I truly miss her
Only He will ever know

April Lichelle Alston, Lylakpetals, AprilFlowers, Ultraviolet007, Ninjetta Candry, & other cute names she graced us with were all shades of her beauty.

She will be missed dearly. I will thank God for the rest of my life for every minute spent with her.

She was enthused with being a prophetess for God, a teacher, and also a friend to mankind and animals.

If you did not know her, you missed out on much, she was a beautiful giving soul with a thirst to experience and share all life had to offer.

Please pray for her family and close friends.

I Promise You

I promise to laugh with you when you laugh and to cry with you when you cry.
I promise to walk you through the rain and to stay till the sun shines again.
I promise to pick you up when you've fallen down and to hold your hand until you are strong.
I promise to always be there whenever you call, for any reason...any reason at all.
And I promise to be the one that you can lean on, for in the strength I share with you....
I find myself a rock that I can lean on to.

We came into each other's life when we both needed a friend. I have seen you cry and you have seen me cry me cry to. I wrote this poem for you and you smiled. You always smiled! There will forever be a void in my heart that will never be filled again for I fill somehow I let you down. I'll miss you for all eternity.
