Obituary

April Denise Andrews

December 1, 1980 - January 21, 2025

“The song is ended, but the melody lingers on” - Irving Berlin

On December 1, 1980, April was born to Johnnie Andrews and the late Lawrence Toomer who loved her dearly. Our beloved April Andrews entered the gates of paradise on January 21, 2025.

April’s passion was family. She made it a priority to keep traditions going. April enjoyed sharing love with family and friends.

To her children Justin and Lawrence Andrews, she was loving and fair. She made sure to instill values in them as well as the importance of education. As for her three grandchildren, April was so proud to be their grandmother.

April is reunited with one sister, Willie Mae Andrews who she loved dearly and her grandparents Walter and Idell Ellis.

April leaves to mourn her passing, her mother, Johnnie Andrews; four brothers, Jermaine Andrews, Lawrence Sopsher, Bobby Barney and Alvin Dykes; eight sisters, Yolanda James, Johanna Dykes, Shondel Sopsher, Vickie Dykes, Lorene Payne, Shelia Barney, Miranda Brown and Myeshia Anderson. April enjoyed spending time with all her siblings.

That smile, that laugh… we will miss, but the memories we will forever cherish.
