My mom always cared for everyone else.  She always made sure we had what we needed.  She loved her family more than anything in the world, including her dogs, Roze and Midnight.  She was always the life of the party and lit up any room she was in.  I just want you to know, Mom, that I love you and I always will.

April loved butterflies, especially monarchs.
