I’m thrilled to have a brother-in-law in you but even if you hadn’t become my sister’s husband, we would still be close friends and you would still mean just as much to me as you do now.
I hope you know how important you are to me and to this family.
I’m wishing you the absolute best birthday today, my dear, as you celebrate 70 wonderful years of life!
I didn’t know exactly what I should write in your birthday card this year, but really the only message I need you to know is that to me, you are so very dear. I mean that from the very bottom of my heart.
I don’t need to tell you that you are a much-respected person and a savior to many, but it must always be nice to hear! You truly are a pillar of the community.
To all my wonderful friends and family who wished me a happy birthday today, I just wanted to say a great big thank you for brightening my special day!
Happy birthday, old man! I hope you can read this message, since you are starting to lose your sight. I would have called you, but your hearing is even worse.
I don’t know how you can even get up in the morning. You are lucky to have a great friend like me to help you along.
Have a great birthday and enjoy whatever years remain!
