*UPDATED CELEBRATION OF LIFE INFORMATION*

April Lynn Cress, 41, of Morgantown, formerly of Masontown, was reunited with her parents on Saturday, February 11, 2023.

April was born in Morgantown, on May 20, 1981, a daughter of the late Jason Ray "Butch" Cress Jr. and the late Sharon Sue (Austin) Cress.

April left an impression on many lives. She was a free spirit who was thankful for every day, loved and lived life, enjoyed cooking meals for others, going on adventures, and experiencing new things. She appreciated the small things in life that money couldn't buy, a beautiful sunset, a beautiful bright moon, and a clear blue sky. Most of all she adored and loved her cats, her family, and friends who she deeply cared about and had touched her life.

April is survived by her brother, Jason Cress III and wife Carrie of Reedsville; niece, Katelynn Strahin; nephew, Garrett Strahin; many aunts, uncles, cousins, and many friends who meant the world to her.

In addition to her parents, April is preceded in death by her grandparents, and special friends, whom she is now with once again.

A celebration of April's life and visitation with her family will be held on Saturday, September 12, 2026 from 2 until 5 pm. To honor April's wishes the Field Funeral Home in Masontown provided cremation services.
