Lenore Kinnick Obituary

In the 64 years that Lenore S. Kinnick lived, she was so many things to so many people.

Beloved daughter, sister, wife, and cherished friend, Lenore S. Kinnick transitioned to her heavenly home on December 4, 2023.

It is with great sadness that we announce the loss of Lenore S. Kinnick, the daughter of the late Jack and Mary Seman. Lenore was preceded in death by her husband, Warren Kinnick, her brother, Jack Seman Jr, and her cherished dog, Buddy.

Lenore's sisters live on, Nancy (Faik) Seman, Dr. Susan (Tab Brown) Seman, Joanne Semaan, Dr. Mary Seman, and Lisa Seman, nieces and nephews, Jessica, Joseph, Frankie, Hunter, Ashley, Alex, Andrew, Aaron, Brett, Angelica, and great-nephews Asher and baby Jack.

Lenore's life was a testament to resilience, compassion, and unwavering love of her church and her faith in God. Her greatest joy was her relationship with God, whom she shared with everyone she met. She was a pillar of strength, offering unconditional love, guidance, and support to everyone around her. Her nurturing spirit created a haven for her family and her friends.

Lenore's generosity knew no bounds, and she helped countless people with her selfless acts of kindness. The profound impact Lenore had on people extended beyond her family and her memory will forever be etched in the hearts of those who had the privilege of calling her a friend. Lenore's fervent prayers touched the heavens for all she prayed for.

If her life could be summed up in a sentence it would be this: "Well done, my good and faithful servant, well done."

A celebration of Lenore's life will be held on Wednesday, December 6, 2023, at 12 pm at The River of Tri Cities, 1005 John Exum Parkway, Johnson City, TN 37604. The family will receive friends from 10 am to 12 pm prior to the service. Friends and family are invited to join in remembering and honoring a life well-lived. Burial services will be privately held for family and close friends.

I met Lenore at her dress shop in Johnson City. She was so sweet and pleasant to be around that i would love going to Lenore´s even if I didn´t need anything. Lenore was beautiful inside and out. So warm and friendly. She lit up any room she was in. I saw her occasionally after she closed and she always chatted and her warm smile made a persons day. Lenore will be greatly missed.

I remember this beautiful lady from when she had her boutique at the Peerless Center. She clothed me for a long time. So sorry to read about her passing. My heart goes out to her family and friends. My deepest condolences.
