Larry Mosnyk wrote a sympathy message

“Janet Keele was the heart and soul of the Humberside music department and Humberside itself. Her spring musicales involved hundreds of students. Christmas Carols in the foyer every December were ever so beautiful. Janet did everything she could to help make the Commencements a magnificent affair. Thank you for everything. We will miss you Janet.”

Lilian Mizuyabu wrote a sympathy message

“Miss Keele was a formidable person who was incredibly smart, compassionate, humorous and full of love. She knew how to command us pimply, somewhat insane teens to be our best selves, to work together and to appreciate who we were (a true miracle). What a gift she was to HCI and to all of us who had the good fortune to have her in our lives. Miss Janet Keele was and always will be legendary. Lilian Mizuyabu, Class of ‘85”

“Janet Keele was the spirit of Humberside Collegiate. Not just in the music department; she spread positivity throughout our school. A wonderful mentor, exceptional professional, and great person who managed to bring out the best in us all. I was fortunate to stay in touch with her over the years and I will miss these moments. Janet, you were the very best! Thank you for all you did to inspire me and create a wonderful HCI legacy. Lena Sadiwskyj, Class of 73.”

“This woman has instilled a love for music, performance and theatre. She taught me to read music and understand theory. This past winter, I missed choir so much I joined a choir(at 39), remembering how much I love to sing with others. The world is rarely blessed with great teachers. Love: Soleil”
