Mary Flynn is a retired teacher. She knows what teaching is like...the hectic schedule, meetings, "parents", curriculum expectations, deadlines, reports, duty, administrators, 5000 questions, non-existent bathroom breaks, that certain kid ..she knows it all. 
After all, she survived with most of her sanity.

Mary knows from first-hand experience that the end of a school year is a particularly busy time for educators. As a result, when a colleague is retiring, leaving or transferring there is not a lot of time to gather as a staff and prepare a tribute. The occasion kind of sneaks up on you, requiring immediate attention and there are always a million other things to do. We guarantee that your colleague will appreciate your efforts for years to come, remembering the "special moments" of a personal tribute organized by friends. 
She speaks from experience.


She can help you with ideas, offering help with how to organize the tribute  - she has considerable experience with year end celebrations and has unique ideas to make it a memorable occasion.
And of course she will write the poem.
You will be in direct contact with her in providing information about The Roastee. The more information, anecdotes and details you provide, the more personal and humorous the content will be. It's that simple. If there is a particular incident that deserves mention, now is the time to present the details! Mary will help you gather your thoughts in providing the information she needs. It is not uncommon for her to be in contact with someone 10 or 12 times during the writing process to ensure quality, verify details and help with any questions.


Over the course of her career, at Teacher Retirements or at end-of-the-year gatherings honoring colleagues who were transferring or leaving, Mary has always been "the entertainer". She is the person to create that "special tribute", writing the lyrics to a song or poem and gathering a group of co-conspirators to present the material in song or verse. A master of manipulating photos using computer software, she has taken many a colleague's less than desirable school photo and transformed it into a treasured keepsake on display for all to see.
These festive "Teacher Roasts" became a tradition at her school and throughout the School Board in which she taught. It was a colleague who pointed out the need for this type of service for any staff requiring tribute material for a colleague.



O
nce you e-mail her, she will be in contact with you to get the creative process started.


Personal service is her priority.  Each order is unique and Mary strives to accommodate your specific requests and needs. If you are once again on that never-ending deadline, she can help.

She will create an "epic poem", a tribute to the life of the "Roastee". Guaranteed  to provide some laughs! Humorous Teacher Retirement poems and songs are her specialty.
