Three Motley Fool contributors think they have found stocks to buy that retirees should absolutely love.

All three offer juicy dividend yields.

Gilead Sciences , AbbVie and Bristol Myers Squibb all offer reliable income and growth prospects.

The Motleys Fool contributors say they're looking for reliable, reliable companies that pay regular dividends.

Gilead Sciences has increased its payout by 22% in the past five years .

Its forward yield currently tops 4.15% .

Retirees -- and income seekers of all types -- can't go wrong with this pick, in my view.

The biotech's ability to innovate and patients won't be inclined to stop taking its medicines even when the economy is down.
