The commencement speech I gave for my last group of students as a teacher before I retired. I did have the opportunity to visit back with my old position this year as a returned to fill in my old position due to the previous teacher leaving unexpectedly. The speech was practiced several times, but results did not go quite a smoothly as I had planned. However it is one that I think will not be one that is soon forgotten. My best wishes to the class of 2022
