Anne E. Giroux

Anne was an exceptionally lively women . Her spirit could be felt even in low spirits due to her declining health . She gifted me my first hand held gaming device the "Gameboy" . She was a mother of 11 children . Some of her artwork I have had the pleasure of seeing and it was that figure of expression that really defined strive . Both joy and pain , she just brushed it off on canvases filling each with the colors of love . Lord may those colors now be with you in heaven . God not of the...

Anne was a beautiful woman in every way!!!! I will always value the conversations we had when she lived in Dubuque and her frequent visits back to see all her friends!!!! Blessings , love and prayers for Anne's family on this Anniversary! Catherine

Anne was an extraordinary woman! She loved her family beyond words, but always had time for others and was a vary involved woman!!!!! I think about her often and pray for the whole family!
Bob was President at Clarke University while I was a faculty member.
The family left a loving imprint on our hearts and on our Institution.
Blessings and love,
Catherine Dunn, BVM

I was so sad to hear of Anne's passing. She had many friends here at the Bakery. She always had a smile and was such a sweet soul. She gave me 2 pieces of her art to hang in the bakery. One is on the wall of my cake decorators area and the other is in my office. That one she made for my 10th Anniversary of opening the Bakery. She was so very thoughtful. My thoughts are with you all. Miss you Anne! God Bless You.

I was a student at Newman University when Dr. Giroux was President. I did not know Anne well, but I met them often and (of course) went to school with their kids. And I remember her smile. Your family and friends have our family's deepest sympathy.

Anne once sent me a thank you note that I still keep. "The most blessed thing someone can do for a mother is something kind for her child." It resonated with me as my children grew into adulthood. We remember her fondly and keep all of you in our prayers.

During the summer of 1973 I had the honor of caring for the Giroux family at their home in Dubuque, I have fond memories of the children and their aunt, I also attended and graduated from Clarke College when Bob was President. I would like to extend my sincerest sympathy to all of the family and let you know I am remembering you in prayer during this most difficult time.

I know her daughter is a very nice person kind loving to my sister-in-law and her family that has told me a lot about her mother Anne kind loving person patient loving mother may she rest in peace in the hands of Our Lord
