                         HONORING ANNE THEROUX

                                 ______
                                 

                        HON. WILLIAM R. KEATING

                            of massachusetts

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, March 3, 2011

  Mr. KEATING. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in celebration of one hundred 
years of inspiration and joy that Anne Theroux of Massachusetts has 
given to those fortunate enough to know her well. A 35-year resident of 
Cape Cod, Anne turns 100 years old on March 4 and continues to thrive 
in her West Dennis home, as independent as ever before.
  Mother to seven, grandmother to thirteen, and great-grandmother to 
fifteen children, Anne has maintained an energy and youthfulness beyond 
her 100 years. She has served her community with many years of teaching 
elementary school, and she is known to always have a book in hand or 
story to share. Anne continues to exercise her intellect as an ace 
crossword puzzle enthusiast, and has participated as a member of the 
woodcarving group at the Dennis Senior Center, where she brings the 
spirit of Cape Cod to each and every one of her bird carvings.
  And so, surrounded by her loving children, extended family, and many 
friends, Anne will celebrate her centennial with a luncheon honoring 
her 100th birthday. I wish Anne and her whole family best wishes for 
many years to come.
