April.. you are a gem. I always loved working with you because you made me laugh and you were super sassy. I wish I had gotten to see you more before you left us. My heart broke and I couldn't believe it when I was told the news.  You had an energy that can never be matched or replaced. My love goes out to your family. I will never forget you.

I would like to say Thank You to everyone for the kind words about April and well wishes for us. God bless each of you!

I'm so sorry for your loss Amber, I can't even imagine! I love you and I'm glad I got to meet your mother at least once. God bless you and your family. 

Praying for God's comfort and peace as you go through this difficult time.   God Bless all of the family as you share your wonderful special memories of April.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Amber, we were so sorry to hear of your mothers death, so young. 
Know that she is with God now and has no more struggles. 
We know  you will miss her dearly. 
We rejoice with your mom at her graduation into the very presence of her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
Aunt Rosemary Seidnitzer Slayton

We are truly sorry for your loss and will keep you and your family in our prayers.  It has been a long time, but one of my favorite things about April was the fact that if you were a reader, she always had a good book to share with you.  She was a loving and kind person.

To the family,  my sincere condolences  go to all of your right now.   I pray that God will comfort you in this critical time.  From day 1 at Upward,  she embraced me  with love,  jokes and friendship.  She is truly going to be missed.  God be with you all.  
Love Lamar and Dee Dee

"Apreel"-miss you so very much at work-you supported my  Poo collection habit and shared your cheese slices and always made everyone laugh-how much you loved your children and husband and nephews-my prayers and wishes for comfort and peace go to all of your family-love, Amy Walker

As you go through this difficult time I ask that GOD be with you. Remember GOD makes no mistakes he knows what best for us. Though your hearts are heavy and you might even fill lonely but his word says that he would never leave us nor forsake us .

Darryl,
My heart hurts for you and the kids. My prayer is for the family to grieve in a healthy manner and to know April is with the Lord she loves.
In Christian love for all.
John and Jo.

My condolence to Darryl and the entire family. It was an honor and a privilege to know April and to have had a relationship with her. April was one of the most kind, thoughtful, and down to earth people you could ever meet. I will forever miss her smile and big hugs. Know that April will never be forgotten and in the hearts of many. Lifting you Darryl and the family in prayer.  Deepest sympathy

Sending many prayers, April will be missed by so many but I know she is watching over all of us.

She will be deeply missed. Our workplace is no longer the same without her. But I know that "PRECIOUS IN THE SIGHT OF THE LORD is the death of His Saints." Psalm 116:15. To the bereaved family, my sincerest condolences. We can't fathom how hard this is for you all as it is to us her co-workers. She was a blessing to me. Praying for God's daily mercy, grace and peace as we continue to move on.

I worked with April in the ER, we were FB friends and often commented on certain things and I am so sad to hear of her passing, what an angel heaven has gained. I will pray for strenghth for you all.

My family and I are praying for your spiritual and emotional strength as you grieve the loss of your love one.  When you are feeling at your lowest, please gain strength by thinking of the wonderful and hilarious things that you shared with April.  May God continue to shower His blessing and favor over your family. Godspeed!

I'm so sorry for your loss. April was a wonderful person and will truly be missed.

So sad, so sorry. Praying for all family, friends and Riverside transfer center employees. God Bless April.

I am speechless right now;

Rest In Peace April

Praying for comfort and peace during this time of bereavement. April will truly be missed.

My deepest sympathies for my family. Condolences to her husband and children. We love you and going to miss April's smile.

We only knew April for a few years, but we immediately realized what a kind, caring and loving mother, wife and person she was. Her life was taken away to soon and it is so hard to understand why tragic things like this happen to such a good person. We cannot find the words to describe how much she will be missed.

                                                                      Joe & Gail Boyle

April, Your sweetness touched us and we will keep your smile in our hearts.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

My Sweet Friend April, I will miss our talks and your laugh, may you rest in peace and keep watching over all of us.

April, the time that I knew you was too short. We enjoyed laughs and smiles and also the mischief while at work. You are a true friend to me and you will greatly be missed. RIP, Love Prince & Ryan

Rest in peace APRIL YOU WELL BE MISSED BY SO MANY WHO love you.

April, you will never know how much you truly touched our lives.  We will miss you!

April will miss your laugh, your smile work will not be the same.  RIP Friend
