staff/colleague Mr./Mrs. (Name here) is going to retire from his/ her official life. With all love and

Thank you so much Sir./Madam for sharing precious words I know everyone present here loved listening
to you.

You started on this journey, so many years ago, and now it’s time to leave behind dear friends you have
come to know! It seems to me that this was more than just a job to you. The passion and the love you
have for working shine right through. You taught that there is more to life than being at the top. It’s in
how you choose to get there, that the blessings never stop. You encouraged them to do their best and
never mind their peers, to choose the straight and narrow, and to overcome their fears. I have often
thought about how powerful your influence must be. You turned each student’s world of dreams into
possibilities! Now I pray God keeps you safe and well, wherever you may turn, surrounded by your
beloved-ones living out the dreams you have earned.

So never waste time wishing that you could have done much more… time to watch those seeds you
planted grow to trust God for what’s in store!

Let’s Celebrate!

Thank you for all the hours you spend.

The attention you give.

Needs that you tend and knowledge you pass on.

Your special touch offering guidance, undaunted by much.

The time you spend planning, efforts you make.
