65th Birthday Card Messages

65th birthday card messages: what to write

Sixty-five often doubles as a retirement card, so the words have to cover two milestones at once. These 65th birthday card messages do exactly that, from cheerful digs to genuine thank yous.

If they're retiring too, say something about what they're gaining rather than what they're leaving. It reads far better.
