RESIGNATION
September 15, 2008

Gary Smith
General Manager
Wells Fargo Bank
888 Remington Drive
Madison, NC 27122

Dear Sir:

I hereby tender my resignation from Wells Fargo Bank effective September 30, 2008.
I find working for the bank as an Investment Consultant extremely challenging and fulfilling. I had the privilege of meeting the bank’s most important clients and the prestige of managing high-end portfolios. I consider my work as the height of my banking career.

However, I decide to shift gears at this stage of my life to be able to spend much valued time with my child. As you may not be aware of, my daughter requires special medical attention and care. She is epileptic and only a mother like me can assure that she is being properly monitored. With this situation, there is not a slightest feeling of regret that I need to resign. I am going to do what I am supposed to do as a responsible parent. Career wise though, I will look for options that will allow me to continue growing in the confines of our home. I might search for a home-based income generating opportunity. I am nevertheless blessed to have a husband willing to support me during this time of crisis.

Thank you so much for everything. I deeply appreciate the respect and guidance I received from you as my supervisor. I guarantee proper turn over of my responsibilities for a smooth transition. As per policy, I am also submitting all properties of the bank in my possession.

Sincerely yours,

Michelle Stansfield

Resignation: Due To Illness

Dear ________

It is with deep regret that I must submit this letter to you. As you may know, I have enjoyed working with this company for ____ years now and would love to be able to continue to do so.

However, due to illness, I find that I must tender my resignation, effective _________. Hopefully, this date will allow you ample time to find a suitable replacement for me. If it were feasible to continue in your employ, I would certainly choose that route, but this is not a possibility with my current health situation.

I have come to think of my co-workers here as part of my family and will certainly miss each one of you. Working with such fine people has added much to my life, and I will always fondly remember the time I spent here. I feel that I have learned much from this job, not only in technical skills, but in dealing with others.

Hopefully, when my recovery is complete, I will be able to again re-enter the job market, and would appreciate any consideration you might give me with respect to employment with your company at that time.

Thank you for your confidence in me. I hope I was able to contribute to the success of the company. I will truly miss you all as well as my work but will try to stay in touch as much as possible. I’m confident your business will continue to thrive and enjoy much success and prosperity in the days ahead.

Sincerely,
Your Name

Sample Letter of Resignation

September 2, 2008

Dear Mr. / Ms. Smith,

It is with deep regret that I am writing this letter to notify you of my immediate resignation from the position of JOB TITLE with COMPANY NAME. This decision was made due to personal medical issues that have recently surfaced. Unfortunately the nature of my condition renders it necessary that I stop working effective today. I am aware of the inconveniences this will cause for you, and I can only offer you my most sincere apology.

Please know that this decision is medically necessary, and I have no other reason or desire to leave my job. My time working with you for COMPANY NAME has been an enjoyable experience. I cannot project how long I will have to undergo treatment, except that my recovery will exceed the acceptable time frame for me to request a medical leave, otherwise I would do so. I understand my abrupt departure may leave you with some questions about the current state of what I am working on, so plese feel free to e-maill me if there is something you think I can help you with. In the meantime, I will type up any notes I can think of and send them to you via e-mail.

I know that there may not be any positions open with COMPANY NAME that fit my qualifications when I have fully recovered. If that may be, I ask that you might provide me with a letter of recommendation to send out along with my resume. We can discuss it further when the time comes.

I truly want to thank you especially for being such a fair and honest employer, and for everything you have taught me in our time working together. As I said before, I resorted to this as a last measure, and if not for my health situation I would not be writing this letter. This has been a difficult time for me, but I know that I must take care of my health, that is what is most important right now. I hope that you understand why I am not able to give any notice at all, it is only because the situation is that dire.

Once again, I appreciate all you and COMPANY NAME have done for me, and honestly hope that we may have the opportunity to work together again one day in the future.

Sincerely,

JOHN DOE
