April is known as an avid music lover and especially loved to sing. She never liked anyone around her to be upset, so she would do whatever she could to make someone laugh. Wherever April was, she lit up a room with her bubbly personality and highly infectious laugh. April always wanted a granddaughter, so she patiently waited for one and was over the moon when she knew she was going to have one. April will also be remembered for her feisty behavior and life of the party attitude. April loved her children and grandchildren more than anything in this world and she will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved her.
A memorial service will take place at the Bethlehem Baptist church located at 14190 West Highway 102, Gravette, Arkansas.
Service date is Saturday, August 16, 2025
