He expressed, “I’ve often said, and you’ve heard it dozens of times, that I’d prefer to leave a few years too early rather than too late.”

He remarked, “This final year has been enjoyable. It’s been a wonderful 40 years. I’m excited for what lies ahead.”

Sajak concluded, “If retirement means continuing my crossword puzzles and spending time with my grandchildren, I’ll be content.”
