Farewell Retirement Ideas
This special farewell retirement ideas section was created because this site often had requests about retirees - no ordinary farewell for them, they've seen everything!
So below is basically a table of contents of all the retirement-themed pages of the website.
The end of a career is a big deal! A retiree's seniority, being one of society's elders and achieving wisdom, deserves a unique going away dinner, gift or speech that is really special, especially when it is a tribute to a large body of work that they have achieved.
If several people within a group are all reaching this time in life together, there can be some pressure to do something different... click for some tips below.
And always place a focus on community - the camaraderie of family and friends is what a retiree values most. Surveys say that when people talk about what they wish they did while they were alive (before they die), working more is not on the list, nor is spending Less time with people!
Adventure Before Dementia!
Goodbye Speech from the Retiree
With some tips on what to include, what to exclude...
