Re: Retirement
Dear Donald,
I want to personally thank the Lawrence Hillman Corporation for allowing me to be a part of a wonderful company for nearly 40 years. As I approach my 65th birthday, I find it necessary to take my retirement.
I want to be able to travel with my wife and enjoy life while I still have the health to do it. It will be bitter sweet to leave such a wonderful company, and all my friends. However, I have put in my time and now want to explore the world and enjoy my time left.
My last day of employment will be on DATE. That will give the company more than three weeks to find an adequate replacement for my position.
While it won’t be easy to find another person like me, perhaps a new person with fresh ideas may brighten the whole company outlook. I am sad to be leaving, but will enjoy my wife and the freedom that retirement allows.
I would like to thank you and the company for being such an important part of my life. From the company fish fry to the annual Christmas Parties, I will truly miss all of these things. I am lucky to have dedicated my life to such a wonderful company. Should you have any questions, please feel free to call me at 555-123-3752.
Sincerely,
George G. Phillips
