April had worked with the Douglas County School System as a Paraprofessional for a number of years and in her prior years of employment, she worked as an EMT for several ambulance services. April’s favorite color was red and she loved the University of Georgia Bulldogs. In her younger years, she spent lots of time riding horses. April enjoyed reading Nicholas Sparks novels, riding horses and camping at the lake. April loved her family and friends and was known to be quite the social lady. Planning and cooking for special times and events were her favorite and she made the best sweet tea!
