I met April through some friends in 1992 here in Virginia Beach. She was always a bright cheerful young woman. I lost contact with her after she got married but thought of her smile often and ironically she was on my mind recently and I couldn't figure out why. I am so sorry to hear the news but I know she has been called for a reason. God has you in the palm of his hand April. My deepest sympathy to April's family.

I knew April as a young girl, she was caring, fun loving child, and very close to my children. I know she will be missed by her friends and family.
My prayers are with her and her family.
Love and God Bless

April was a beautiful soul and was a gift from God to our family. May she dance with all the angels who have gone before her.

April your physical present will be missed everyday. I pray you are now dancing with the Angels you treasured. Everytime I see PeterPan and Tinkerbell, I will think of you the shiny light, tinkerbell. Love always, Aunt "Pat"
