even when it seemed to come unfurled.
So as you retire, congratulations!
You surpassed all expectations.

your family second

to dote upon your family
and enjoy every minute of your day.
Happy retirement!

With big shoes to fill

So here you’ve arrived
At a long journey’s end
You’ve made a great difference
And plenty of friends
You’ve inspired so many
And provided wisdom plenty
So I hope that this next chapter is greater than the last
Keep doing you, and having a blast

A long day’s work can sit in your bones
Even once you’ve clocked out, and made it home
But now you’re done, you’ve made it to the end
And now your adventure may truly begin
Enjoy this time, it is yours to cherish
Capture the years, don’t let them perish
33
Clocking in and clocking out can become a vicious cycle
But you’ve made it enjoyable and very worthwhile
Thanks for teaching me so many things
And now enjoy the time that’s yours until the tide rings
I hope that happiness is all your retirement brings
