A graduate of Coshocton High School, April built a life marked by compassion and service to others.

In both roles, she made a difference in the lives of others through her dedication and care.

April embraced life with enthusiasm and a vivid sense of personality. She was known for having a great sense of humor, but also for her stubbornness. April is described by her family as a lady who had a unique and lovely sense of style, she lit up a room with her bright smile; Her best friend always described April like an Angel with her beautiful blond hair and blue eyes.

She loved cats, gardening, decorating, acting, and singing, and she kept her faith close to her heart. She especially delighted in decorating for the holidays and was known to go wonderfully over the top, creating festive surroundings that reflected her joyful spirit. She also enjoyed horror movies and mysteries, finding pleasure in stories that kept her guessing and entertained.

Of all the roles she held in life, the one she cherished most was being a mother. Her proudest accomplishment was being an amazing mother and always putting her family first. That devotion shaped her life and remains one of the clearest and most enduring gifts she leaves behind.
