My sincere condolences to the McIver family and friends. I worked with Lenore at HazChem for over eight years and no matter how difficult a task, she always seemed to get the job done. We all will miss her greatly. May her memory be eternal.

To Shari and all of Lenore's family: I had the privilege of taking care of Lenore this year in the oncology office. I say privilege, because I feel blessed to have known her and despite her illness, always had a smile and kind words for office staff and other patients. She was truly an inspiration to many there. May she rest in peace and may all of you find comfort in knowing that she is at peace.

My deepest sympathy to the McIver family on your loss. I went to grammer school (St Symphorosa) with Lenore. May she rest in peace.

Lenore was a good friend. She conforted me when my life seemed to be on a downhill run. She was the one who gave me the nickname of Big Daddy. I could always count on her to give me positive advice during my dark segments of my life. I have only known her for 8 years but it seems like a lifetime. I will truly miss her.
