I am shocked and deeply saddened to hear of April's passing. She was my first cousin and I have many memories growing up with her, Tammy, Terri and Michael. My best memories of growing up were at my Uncle Phil (RIP Uncle Phil) and Aunt Janes house and the pool (many people were thrown in that pool against their will!). We disconnected through the years but you obviously impacted many people throughout your life and were loved by many...RIP April.
My thoughts are with Aunt Jane and the family during this difficult time.

April and I were best friends for at least 15 years. We practically lived at each others houses. We loved each other as sisters. I will NEVER forget all the vacations and fun we had together. I will miss her more than words can say. God Bless April, her children, sisters, brother and mom Jane. GOD will watch over all of us during this traumatic time.

April was the second mother for Tammy, Terri and Mike. She watched out for them even when they didn't want her to. Later she was mother to all the neighbor kids as well as her own. She will be missed.

Jane & Family,
I am so very sorry for the loss of your precious, beautiful daughter, April.
I didn't know April very well, but I knew she had a loving, giving heart & would be there for anyone that needed help. That's all I really needed to know - the most important thing in life - she had compassion.
To say that April is at peace will not take away your heartache, but she is, now, at rest.
My Love & Blessings to you & your family; I pray for peace in your soul.
