Dear Grace

Wow, it's really happening!!

Grace, you have been one of the most dedicated and helpful people that I have ever had the pleasure to work with. Your thoughtfulness over the years has been truly amazing. This shone through with every email you sent or little delivery that you would leave on our desks. You would always go the extra mile to help anyone out. These things can't be faked; you are THE most genuine person that I know.

Your friendship means a great deal to me, and I will miss our catchups and photo swapping of our grand babies.

I wish you all the happiness for your next chapter. I know it will be a busy one for you, taking care of your family and granddaughters. They are very lucky to have you in their lives.

I wish you all the peace and joy that life can bring Grace.

Dear Grace,

What an exciting chapter of journey for you! No more alarm clock, no more list of ICT tasks depending on the urgency level and no more me ringing you to help me with ICT issues :)

Thank you for your friendship, you always have a smile on your face, always very helpful and friendly to me, I truly appreciate it, I will miss your baking! and miss sharing laughters together.

I believe your retirement will be filled with lots of relaxing moments, holidaying and drinking lots of cocktails.

You will be missed Grace!

The little things you do, do not go unnoticed. I always look forward to the themed staffroom table at Mothers day, Fathers day, Xmas, Easter etc. I will miss our car park chats but remember you can always come in for Friday morning coffee club.

Enjoy whatever comes next, which I assume will include lots of time with the family.

Look after yourself.

Love

Grace,

It's been a wonderful pleasure working and having coffee with you, thank you so much for you kind and positive outlook. We will all be the poorer for not having your cheering hand decorating for special days during the year. There are very few people with sunshine in their heart like you so please take enjoyment that you have brightened all our days and may you have a wonderful retirement.

Big hug

It's been privileged to work someone professional like you. At the same time, you are such a nice soul that help others around you all the time. We will treasure all your kindness, compassion and cheerful attitude in our hearts. Your creativity has no limits whether it's work, Christmas decorations, cooking yummy foods, making lively conversation and the list will keep going. Too good!!

Well-deserved retirement and I hope you will spend quality time looking after yourself in midst of 'never ending' mum duty.

Take care,

Thank you for taking me under your wing and teaching me everything I need to know in this role! I really appreciate the guidance and wouldn't be so comfortable doing this job if it wasn't for you.

You will definitely be missed by everyone!
