Janet Barrie Smith - WHS'75; June 13, 1958 – November 8, 2020
With heavy hearts, we share the news of the passing of our dear classmate Janet Barrie Smith after a four year battle with early onset dementia. We had heard that Janet was ill in January, but were shocked nonetheless to hear of her untimely death. In his email, her husband Garry wrote how much she had enjoyed our last reunion and would have been eager to attend the next one. "I had the opportunity to meet many of you at the last reunion and it was pretty obvious why she always spoke of her school years so fondly."
You can consult the full obituary below and send condolences or join us in making a donation. (Contact Info: garry.smith@rogers.com or 2945 Thomas Street, #74, Mississauga,ON L5M 6C1)

We will always remember her beautiful smile, warm heart and great sense of fun. RIP dear Janet.

On Monday, March 30th, our 45 Year Reunion committee made the difficult, but unanimous decision to immediately postpone our reunion until the current health crisis has passed. WE WILL REUNITE !!!
All tickets purchased will be automatically refunded to you over the next few days via the original method of payment. (E-transfers will likely be refunded by cheque.) Any hotel reservations you may have made at the InterContinental Hotel are cancellable with no penalty and we hope that any flight reservations you have will be as well. Proposed postponement dates will be discussed once the situation becomes more stable…and you will be the first ones to know!
Although we are hopeful that restrictions may be eased by the end of May, we know that everyone’s priorities will be focused on reconnecting with and supporting families and loved ones. So for now, with our Westmount High family, we hope to find some other fun ways to connect virtually as we weather this extended ‘snow day’ together! Stay tuned for more news on this subject.
Thank you all so much for your ongoing enthusiasm and encouragement. Stay safe, stay healthy. We will be back!
