It was a pleasure to have worked with April for many years at New Milford Hospital. Throughout her illness she proved to be one of the bravest women I know and I admire her greatly for that. One thing April always spoke so highly of was her love for her sons and how proud she was of their accomplishments in life. April, you will always be remembered. Take comfort in knowing that you now have a beautiful guardian angel watching over you all. Rest in Peace April.

I knew April for about ten years through business. She was always very warm & friendly. Since we both lived in New Fairfield I would see her occasionally around town. Again, she was always someone I looked forward to seeing. I prayed for her regularly as she fought such a brave fight, & I will miss her more than you'll ever know. Ken Schoefer, New Fairfield, CT
