April was a woman of deep compassion and vibrant spirit. She dedicated her life to teaching, shaping countless young minds with patience, encouragement, and a genuine belief in every child’s potential. Her classroom was more than a place of learning—it was a safe haven where students felt seen, valued, and inspired.
Outside the classroom, April found joy in the simple and magical moments of life. She had a deep love for turtles and dolphins; drawn to the grace and gentleness they embodied. The ocean was her sanctuary, where she loved to swim, feeling at peace with the world around her. One of her happiest places on earth was, fittingly, Disney World—a place she visited often, embracing its wonder and magic with the heart of a child.
April had a special fondness for first responder television shows, admiring the courage and strength of those who serve others—values she carried within herself. But above all else, she was devoted to her family. As a wife and mother, she was the heart of her home—steadfast, nurturing, and always full of love. As a daughter and sister, she was a source of strength, joy, and connection.
April Bolenz’s life was a beautiful gift to all who knew her. She will be missed more than words can express and remembered always with deep love and gratitude.
Visitation for April will be held Friday, June 27, 2025 from 4 – 7 pm at Snyder Funeral Home, Denzer Chapel (360 E. Center St. Marion, Ohio).
