Notes - From 2009 McIver Family History Book:
Our Dad Arnold McIver was born Nov. 21, 1929 in Aroostook, N.B. to Louis McIver and Genevieve Armstrong McIver.
When his parents separated he came to Newton, PEI, in the care of his grandparents, Hugh and Carolyn McIver. He and his brother Ronald, spent their early years with their Uncle Hugh John McIver and his family and their Aunt Annie Duffy and her family.
Dad attended school in Newton, Kinkora and later St. Dunstan’s University. He worked for CN Marine during which time he married Norma Lawless in 1953 at Summerfield Church. In 1955 I was born (Ann) and we were living in Summerside as Dad worked at Schuman’s. We later moved to Montreal and in 1959 my sister Sharon was born. A few years later our parents bought a store in Kinkora and we moved back to the Island.
Dad was very interested in community and was instrumental in the building of the Senior’s Citizens Complex and later Kinkora Complex.
He loved to travel and visited many places including two trips to Europe with our mother. Dad really enjoyed our summer home in Chelton but his health began to fail and he was diagnosed with A.L.S. (Lou Gehrig’s Disease) and died December 2, 2004 in the Palliative Care Unit at the Prince County Hospital.
He was a good Dad and we miss him.
