Dear Mr. Paisley,
It has been a pleasure working for you for the last five years. I really appreciate the recommendation you sent to Mrs. Smithers at the ABC Company.
In my second phone interview, she said that she had received it, and that she felt that your confidence in me would be helpful when I interview in person next week with the General Manager.
I will miss working with you and the team at Catco, but the opportunity for my husband in New City was not something we felt we could pass up at this time. Thank you for your support and understanding during this transitional time for my family.
Fond Regards,
Annabelle
