Perhaps a membership somewhere would be a good idea. not sure . never been to a retirement party but good luck with it hon.

he was VERY close to his mom, who in her adult life became blind, then was stricken with cancer.

today i told jim i loved him. [not in a romantic sense-- we never had sex, not my type]
he strated to cry.

he wants to be inclusive of th entire facility- and not limit the party just to the front office.

How many people would be there?  How fancy or informal should this be? 
Do you have a budget to work with?  Will there be singing and
dancing at the party?

he is very sentimental.  hmmm cancer research- that would excite him. in the area of 800 ppl would participate- both co-workers- and clients.

which makes me think..... hmmmm. *bling*

Brilliant idea!!!  Im not sure I have the clout to make it a go tho.   As of this morning tho- he will be getting a plaque from the state. I phoned it in. She said should she mail it. i said no, thats tacky; i will pick it up. so as to be no surprises; I told him about this.
