Mrs Norma Keizer, you are gone.
I did not get to say farewell;
To a teacher, a mother, a mentor, a friend
Youâve gone to the great beyond.
St. Vincent mourns and misses you.
Such an educator, such an intellect, such a personality, such creativity.{{more}}
Our teacher you were, our mentor you were,
You gained our respect.
Even with that calm and serene voice, âGirls be quietâ,
then you can hear if a pin drops.
We admired you, you inspired us, you treated us as your children.
You taught us to hold our heads up high
You taught us to be fond of virtue more than gold.
You taught us at the Girlsâ High School to let our light so shine, and to believe in God,
And you delighted in hearing us sing, âPer ardua ad altaâ.
Gone but not forgotten.
