We're here to celebrate the retirement of _________ after 35 plus years of service,,,,

Now she can be home all day to pamper me instead of waiting for her to come home from work.

My wife was a teacher, I said she no longer had class and has lost her principles.

Looks like you're just going to have to "pull a Biden" here. :Jeff '79:

How about, "I remember Mrs. Rickles starting this job 35 years ago, and I haven't known her to look for work since"....always gets a laugh.

And end with, "Mrs. Rickles is a great nurse but she always wonders why she has a thermometer behind her ear, and its because some asshole got her pencil".

Or, "The Rickles family has a proud tradition of service in the medical industry and my wife has been an excellent nurse for years and I am an amateur gynecologist".

I'll be here all week...
====================================
But seriously, anyone with a long term career has had what I call "home runs". Highlights during their work that just made them feel like they'd really done some good and made a difference. Maybe she saved someone who was mis-diagnosed, or, did something special for a patient that nobody else even though of or some charitable act that she told you about.

Best if you can surprise her in the speech with these incidents that she may have told you about a while back instead of just asking her about them now.

This makes it personal, poignant and you might just get 'lucky' the night after the speech.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Today, we gather to celebrate the remarkable journey of my wonderful wife, Mrs. Rickles, as she embarks on a new chapter in her life—retirement. It's the end of grading endless stacks of papers and the beginning of grading... our TV show choices.

Mrs. Rickles, your dedication and passion for teaching have been truly inspiring. Over the years, you have touched the lives of countless students, shaping their minds and hearts with your knowledge and kindness. Your unwavering commitment to education, exceptional skills, and patience have left a lasting impact on everyone who has had the pleasure of learning from you. And let's not forget your incredible talent for turning even the most mundane subjects into fascinating lessons.

As you step into this new phase, I want you to know how incredibly proud I am of all your accomplishments. You have always been a pillar of strength and support, not only for your students and colleagues but for our family as well. Your hard work and perseverance have set an example for all of us, especially when it comes to handling unexpected questions like "Why is the sky blue?" for the millionth time.

Now, as you embrace retirement, I look forward to spending more quality time together. Whether it's exploring new hobbies, traveling to new places, or simply enjoying quiet moments at home, I am excited to create new memories with you. And by "new hobbies," I really mean we'll finally tackle that giant stack of books you've been meaning to read.

Mrs. Rickles, your retirement is not just the end of a remarkable teaching career; it's the beginning of a new adventure. I know that whatever you choose to do, you will continue to inspire and make a difference in the lives of those around you. And if you ever feel nostalgic for the classroom, I promise to let you quiz me on random trivia—just like old times.

So, let's raise a glass to Mrs. Rickles—to her achievements, her future, and the countless adventures that lie ahead. Here's to a happy, healthy, and fulfilling retirement! May your days be filled with relaxation, joy, and just the right amount of chaos to keep things interesting.

Congratulations, my love.

And thank you all for coming. You don't have to go home but you can't stay here.


Rickles,
Actually I feel for you, planning this can be a bit of a stressful pain in the ass. I just spent a month planning my wifes birthday. It didn't get better for me until it went off good and was over.

Title- *Mrs.


Hope this helps :D

He'd get linguistics and semantics!

Yeah f*ckin' AI developed speech, great way to celebrate a lifetime of achievement and sacrifice with some larcenous bit of verbal Pablum. Maybe that night you'll find a blow up doll in bed with you instead of a warm, loving life partner.

If I were her I would rather you stumbled through some heartfelt speech that YOU wrote with a less industrial, trite tone and is a testament to how proud and happy you are for her....

The best, most memorable wedding speech I ever heard was by a bride's father that he wrote himself, an introvert and a man of few words his whole life.

He gave a halting, emotional delivery, and the grammar and structure were a bit screwed up - not a dry eye in the house.

Worry less about embarrassing yourself and more about stating what YOU really feel instead of what some programmer thinks you should say.

Why not type that sentence into ChatGPT and let AI do it for you?

I agree and gotta say even Elon would agree with Frankie on this. :D

Rickles,
Actually I feel for you, planning this can be a bit of a stressful pain in the ass. I just spent a month planning my wifes birthday. It didn't get better for me until it went off good and was over.
So, I threw a hell of shindig for Mrs. Rickles 60th Birthday! I rented the Mercer Museum for the evening, hired a band and had it catered by one of the best in our area. Spared no expense and we had just under 120 guests attend. I had to speak before the group, I wasn't a bit intimidated and boy did my speech go over well! I really did enjoy controlling the crowd. Gotta give some credit to my daughter for helping with many details. I loved doing it.

See the reply above. I somewhat agree but these suggestions are a great start. Thing is they aren't, "from my heart" and don't really sound like me. I will use these as a basis to the speech but add in my thoughts. There's a scene in the movie The Wedding Crashers, where Owen Wilson gives the advice to a sister giving a toast to speak from the heart. It's true, it makes it very easy to speak before a crowd, knowing the subject better than anyone.


Thanks guys for the help, seriously!:seasix:

I am usually quite the cunning linguist, but drawing a blank on this one.

Because he'd rather it come from his heart....or a bunch of guys on a car forum :Jeff '79:

Dearly beloved
We are gathered here today
To get through this thing called "retirement"
Relaxing word, retirement
It means forever, and that's a mighty long time
But I'm here to tell you there's something else:
The togetherness
A world of never ending being around each other
You can always see the Sun, day or night
So when you call up that shrink in Beverly Hills
You know the one, Dr. Everything'll-Be-All-Right
Instead of asking him how much of your time you'll spend together
Ask him how much of your mind, babe
'Cause in this life
Things are much harder in retirement
In this life
You're on your own
And if de retirement tries to bring you down
Go crazy (Punch a higher floor)


You people with your AI....damn, just write something yourself, like I did.

:dance:
