(applauding)
- Sheriff Garvey, over the past two decades
you have been an icon at our commencement ceremonies.
On this, your last Smith commencement before retiring,
- [graduates] No!
- We mark the end of an era.
Your presence at our ceremony, from your formal attire
to your booming voice, have brought majesty
to Smith College's most treasured moments.
We have been honored to have you bring us
to order for two decades, and we wish you
all the best upon your well deserved retirement.
While it might not be as regal as your attire today,
we'd like to leave you with a gift in gratitude.
(graduates laughing)

(cheering and applauding)
And now, Mister Sheriff, if you would for one last time,
please bring the proceedings to a close.
(cheering)
- The 138th Commencement
of Smith College is hereby adjourned.
God save the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
