Retirement wishes
Personal words for a special farewell
Retirement is a very special milestone—a moment to reflect on many years of commitment, experiences, and shared memories. But what should you write in a retirement card without resorting to generic phrases?
A truly meaningful farewell greeting should be authentic and personal . Standard messages like "Happy retirement" or "Enjoy your free time" are quick to write but rarely memorable. A personalized message, on the other hand, shows appreciation and genuine recognition.
Personal words: Retirement
A handwritten card has special value because it captures thoughts and memories that come from the heart. A personal message can further honor the connection with the retired person and show them the difference they made. These questions will help you find the right words:
What do you associate with this person? – Are there any special shared experiences or insider information that shaped your time together?
What qualities do you admire? – Was she always patient, did she have a great sense of humor, or was she a real asset to the team?
What will you miss? – Will it be her calmness, her advice, or simply the shared coffee in the morning?
What wishes can you share with them? – Perhaps there are dreams or hobbies that now finally have time for.
