I shall always remember April for her kindness and dedication working with cancer patients in my office. It was a privilege and inspiration to work with her for many years. With gratitude, Kevin Loh

It's with great sadness I learnt of April's passing when I recently returned to Honolulu. Through my long standing working relationship with April, she had always a most compassionate and dedicated nurse for her patients. She always stayed late after work hours to call up patients and enquired after their symptoms and answered their queries. I was most fortunate to have April as a partner in caring for cancer patients over the years. My sympathies to Kent and family. I fondly remember attending your wedding at Harris Methodist Church and the birth of your children. April, rest in God's eternal peace. Dr. Kevin Loh
