I first met Janet when she became interim director of Montreal City Mission (MCM) in the early 90s. She was with us only for a short while but I recall clearly what a champion she was for the communities we served and also for the staff - always working to ensure we had the best employment conditions possible. Janet retired to Ontario but remained in touch with MCM throughout the years, returning to Montreal to help us celebrate our centennial in 2010. Janet was a generous soul in every meaning of the word - with her time, resources, kindness and good will. Rest in peace dear sister.
Rev. Paula Kline
Director, Montreal City Mission

I am a former colleague of Janet when she worked at Saint Columba House, a United Church mission, in Point St, Charles in Montreal from 1966 to 1978. I was a student at the United Theological College and worked with her for 3 years while studying (Part-time in the winter and full-time in the summer.) Janet was the most gracious and insightful person I have ever met. When she came to Saint Columba House she transformed the mission from one focused on charity to one focused on justice and empowerment. Under her leadership the medical clinic, the legal clinic, and the housing coop were developed, which still work at community issues today. Janet left a significant legacy at Saint Columba House, which this year celebrates its 100th Anniversary. Ever since her tenure, the focus on justice and empowerment has not changed, a tribute to her insight and commitment to the mission of the church. Janet will be missed at the various causes which she espoused.
My sincere condolences to all the family and friends who will miss her.
