Retirement does not change a Catholic priest's form of address in any way, he is still addressed as "Father", and his written name is "The Reverend So and So", unless he is a Monsignor, in which case it would be "Monsignor"and "The Reverend Monsignor So and So"
"Monsignor" is an Italian title meaning "My Lord". In English, the title is used for Catholic Christian priests awarded with one of three ecclesiastical honors (protonotary apostolic, honorary prelate, or chaplain of his holiness). Incumbents of certain offices in the Church, such as the vicar general of a diocese, may also be addressed as monsignor, though this is less common. Therefore, "monsignor" is a Christian title, not a Jewish one.
There are three honorary titles that the pope may bestow on a priest, usually at the request of his bishop:Protonotary ApostolicPrelate of HonorChaplain of His HolinessA priest awarded any of these honorary titles may be addressed as "Monsignor".http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monsignor
