She was driving a red 2004 Ford Freestyle van with a Florida license tag reading J36-8ZE. Pauline Varner, Lemire's grandmother,says Lemire told her she went to meet a man named "Joe," who she believes Lemire met online, for coffee. Police said the man was interviewed and told police they met up and went their separate ways. Police said they believe his story. Varner was worried because because her granddaughter is a diabetic and doesn't have her insulin with her. "It's very difficult because you just don't know, and it's not a good thing. I just hope she's alright," said Varner. "She told me she would call me when she got down there and she did, then she said she'd call me when she got ready to come back and I said 'OK fine,' but that never happened." Varner said her granddaughter, a mother of three, never disappears for hours or days at a time without telling her. It's just not like her because if she goes to the store she says I'll be back in an hour and she's back in an hour." Lemire is described as 5 feet 4 inches tall and 130 pounds with blond hair. Anyone with information about her whereabouts is urged to call the Orlando Police Department at 321-235-5300. www.clickorlando.com/news/Man-interviewed-in-Orlando-woman-s-disappearance/-/1637132/13063820/-/me9rvuz/-/index.html |

Orlando woman still missing following date at Kissimmee McDonald's Story posted 2012.05.14 Orlando police continue to search for a woman was reported missing after leaving to see a man she met through an online dating service nearly a week ago. Police said Sandra Lemire, 47, was last seen on May 8 when she left her home on Windward Court to meet the man at a McDonald’s in Kissimmee. A spokesperson with the police department said they have not found any signs of foul play. Police said they have since met with the man who met with Lemire, saying his story checks out. But Lemire's grandmother, Pauline Varner, is worried. Varner said Lemire called to tell her she got to the McDonald's and that she would call her when she left. The call never happened, said Varner. "It's like the longer you wait, the worse it seems to you," said Varner. Authorities said Lemire drives a 2004 red Ford Freestyle van with a Florida tag number J368ZE. "(She was) just going to have a cup of coffee and talk and get acquainted," Varner said. Family members said Lemire has met men online before and hadn't told them about any problems. Varner said her granddaughter has never run away before and always keeps in touch. "Absolutely everybody is just very, very concerned with it. And, you can't even think we don't want to think what's happening," Varner said. Lemire's family said she is diabetic, but left her insulin at her grandmother's house where she was staying. Varner said she fears something has gone terribly wrong. "She did not take her insulin with her cause it's still in the refrigerator. I don't want to think about it, so I've turned it off," Varner said. Anyone with information is asked to call Orlando police. wap.wftv.com/site.htm?targetUrl=http://www.wftv.com/news/news/local/orlando-woman-still-missing-following-date-kissimm/nN5bN/ |

Lemire's family said she is diabetic, but left her insulin at her grandmother's house where she was staying. Pretty odd. Her date convinced them he is not involved, she does not call grandma at end of date like she is good to do, and then she just disappears on the 18 mile drive back home? Are her 3 kids living with her at grandma's house, or are they adult children? |

Family wants answers in missing woman's disappearance Last Updated: Monday, June 11, 2012 @ 12:03AM ORLANDO --PREVIOUS STORY Missing Orlando woman's disappearance after date 'suspicious' By Margaret Kavanagh , Reporter Last Updated: Monday, June 11, 2012 @ 12:03AM An Orlando woman has been missing for over a month and her family who is desperate to find her. Sandra LeMire, 47, disappeared after meeting up with a man she met over the Internet. "In times like this, you have a thousand and one types of scenarios running through your head,” said her father, Robert Varner said. He said LeMire is an avid online dater, but he didn't like it. "I tried to convince her not to do that, but she is 47 and she took all my advice, but that so,” Varner explained. LeMire was last seen at a McDonald's in Kissimmee on May 9. Her grandmother was the last relative to speak with her. "When she got there, she called and said I'm here,” Pauline Varner said. Police said her date is not a person of interest in her disappearance, but they now consider her disappearance suspicious. Her family says police are searching her phone, computers, and her online dating profiles. They said she always took precautions when she met her dates in person. She would meet them in a public place and even introduce them to her relatives. "She'd usually bring the fellows here for me to meet,” said her grandmother. She was driving her grandmother's red van, which remains missing. LeMire has been diabetic since childhood. Her family said there's no way she'd leave town without her medication that she needs three times a day. The family dog, Chico, continues to look for the woman who used to walk him daily. LeMire has three adult sons in Michigan and her family said the ordeal has been tough for everyone. "We just want to know what happened to her and if there is any way we can help her come back,” said her father. Crimeline is offering a reward of up to $1,000 for information into the disappearance of Sandra LeMire. Lemire is about 5 feet, 4 inches tall, with blond hair. She weighed approximately 130 pounds at the time of her disappearance. The missing van is a red, 2004 Ford Freestyle with Florida license tag J36-8ZE. www.cfnews13.com/content/news/cfnews13/news/article.html/content/news/articles/cfn/2012/6/10/family_distraught_ov.html |

Sandra Lemire: Orlando woman's disappearance called suspicious June 9, 2012 More than 30 days after his daughter vanished, Robert Varner said he is relieved that police have finally deemed Sandra Lemire's disappearance suspicious. "It makes me feel a little bit better," he said. "I think they're taking it a little more serious now." Varner said he has been in close contact with detectives at the Orlando Police Department in the four weeks since his 47-year-old daughter went missing. "I think they're doing a good job," he said adding that at this point he just wants one thing — to know what happened to his daughter. Lemire lived with her grandmother Pauline Varner in an Orlando subdivision near Interstate 4 and John Young Parkway before she vanished May 8. Lemire, who helped care for her grandmother, left the home in Varner's red 2004 Ford Freestar to meet a man she met online and never came back. Police interviewed the man and they ruled him out as a suspect. The two met at a restaurant in Kissimmee where he works before his overnight shift began. Police have not released the man's name but Robert Varner said investigators have told the family that surveillance video from the restaurant showed that he stayed at work for several hours after Lemire left. Since then, there's been no sign of the woman or the van, which had this Florida tag: J36-8ZE. Both Robert and Pauline Varner say they are most worried about Lemire's health. She is a diabetic and they say she left home that night without her needles or insulin, something they say she would never have done if she planned to leave town. "If she said she was going shopping and would be back in an hour, she would be back in an hour," Pauline Varner said. Even Chico, the family's light brown short-haired Chihuahua, seems to miss her. Lemire's grandmother said the dog keeps checking her bedroom to see if she has come back. Lemire has family all over the country, including three adult children and a brother in Michigan, one sister in North Carolina and another here in Central Florida. She moved here from Michigan three years ago after her longtime boyfriend died from a medical problem. No new leads or suspects have cropped up. Sgt. Vince Ogburn, spokesman for the Orlando Police Department, said because investigators have seen no sign of her or her car, they have deemed her disappearance suspicious. "We would normally have come across the car or her within 30 days," Ogburn said. Ogburn added that OPD still believes Lemire is alive. "We have no reason to believe she is not alive," he said. A $5,000 reward is being offered for any information leading to Lemire or her vehicle. Anyone with any information is urged to call Crimeline at 1-800-423-TIPS "We don't have any closure," Robert Varner said. "We just want the closure. We want to know what happened to her. We'd like to say hopefully they will find the person or people that did this and bring them to justice but we don't have any leads." www.sun-sentinel.com/news/local/breakingnews/os-missing-sandra-lemire-suspicious-20120601,0,3641059.story |
