One thought is to "leave 'em laughing!"

Your ending should briefly sum up what you've said in your speech. Strive to make the last sentence or two memorable, even if it doesn't leave them laughing.
ok so maybe tell a joke or go back on your intro ( say you used a phrase or comment used by a famous man ), something like that?
Yes, you could do that -- or use a similar quotation.
I always liked the way Dr Baez ended his speeches, he said "And Finally, here is a picture of my dogs" and he put a photo of his two dogs on his front porch.
