It’s been a long time since i’ve seen April. But she was always so full of life and was very passionate. I would think of her every now and then and think how exciting her life must be. She will be missed by many. The world has lost a very beautiful person.

I remember when April came to Plainwell HS with her joyous spirit and friendliness. I last saw her working at the Kalamazoo People’s Food Coop and she had that same warm, engaging smile. She lit up my day that day also. Please accept my condolences and I pray and hope for your strength in this sad time.
