Free Birthday Speech

Having a free birthday speech to look over when you have one of your own to write is often a big help in sorting out what you want to say.

This speech was sent in by Candace in honor of her best friend Tammy. Although this is geared towards a 30th birthday you can use it to guide you in writing a speech for a person of any age.

Free Birthday Speech

Hi everyone and welcome! I am honored to be giving this birthday toast to my longest and closest friend -Tammy.

First of all, a big thanks to all of you for joining us to celebrate Tammy's 30th birthday. I would like to take a couple minutes to talk about Tammy and the wonderful amazing woman that she is!

I am so grateful to have such a great friend in my life! We met in Junior High, one of the toughest years for any adolescent. This was a time of cute boys, funky make-up, nagging parents, enticing temptations and trustworthy friends. In a time where stress is high we bonded and became life long friends.

Throughout the past 17 years I have seen Tammy grow into the beautiful, caring and loving person that she has become. When thinking about giving this speech tonight I decided to focus on one quality that truly shines in Tammy. That quality is her passion!

Any goal that Tammy sets her mind to she does with passion and dedication! This passion has led her to changing the lives of many students, friends and family.

While sitting in the most awful math classes of all time, Tammy looks at me and says that she is going to be a teacher. She is the most passionate teacher that I know.

She truly strives every day to be there for her students in the most difficult years of their lives. She has had students come back several years later, after graduating high school, and thank her for changing the course of their life by not only educating but inspiring them.

Tammy also has a passion for her husband and family. Dan and Tammy have one of the most caring and understanding partnerships that I have ever seen.

You can see the passion they have for each other and their family. Tammy has many roles to play and one of them is chauffeur. She makes sure that her families needs are met and that they have fun doing it! She attends every soccer game, gymnastic meet and dance recital. She defiantly makes sure date nights happen.

Tammy has a passion for life. She is always the one planning parties. She is also there when you need a shoulder to cry on. She is one of the most caring, wonderful people I know.

I am honored to call her my friend and to be here today to celebrate her 30th birthday.

To close I would like to share a quote by Carl W. Buechner that always reminds me of Tammy, "they may forget what you said, but they will never forget how you made them feel."

End of Free Birthday Speech

There are some great qualities to this birthday speech. First off Candace chose one quality of her friend and expanded on that. You can do the same.

Choose a quality like passion, kindness, humor...something that defines the person you are speaking about and expand on that with examples of how they use it in their lives.

This shows you know and appreciate this person and allows others to see more of what they're about. Ending a free birthday speech with a quote is a great way to sum up what you love about the person you are speaking about!
