Sample 1:

“Dear Chief Cox:

It is with sadness that I must tender my resignation from the ABC Volunteer Fire Department effective September 30, 2013. I have been working for XYZ Airlines on a part-time basis, but have now found a full-time job with the airline. I must move to Houston to accept the full-time position with ABC Airlines, and as I am in need of full-time work I needed to accept this position.

I want to say that it has been an honor working for the department with the other courageous individuals who make up the ABC Volunteer Fire Department. I have never known a finer group of people and count it as an honor to have worked alongside them to protect the residents of ABC City. Once I am settled in one of the suburbs of Houston I plan to seek a position with the volunteer fire department in my new home.

I greatly appreciate all of the training I received through the department in ABC City and feel privileged to have learned how to properly fight fires, use the equipment and handle medical emergencies involving individuals who suffer the effects of exposure to smoke and fire. In addition, I enjoyed tremendously the educational events in which I participated and helped teach young people in the public school system fire prevention techniques.

Thank you for allowing me to enrich my life by working as a volunteer at ABC. It is important to me to give back to the community regardless of where I live. As I plan to seek another position as a volunteer firefighter in the metropolitan Houston area, I would be grateful if you could provide me with a letter of reference. Please accept this letter of resignation and my gratitude for a memorable life experience.

Sincerely,

Greg Johnson

“Yaretzi Townsend,

Please let this letter serve as my resignation from the Atlas Volunteer Fire Department effective two weeks from September 1, 2014. This decision was not easy for me but I have decided to go back to school to improve my employment situation and better provide for my family, which leaves no time for being a volunteer fireman.

In my time with the department, I have met many wonderful friends and felt as though I was doing my best to support the community. I also enjoyed all of the community events the department would participate in and the chance to march each year in the Thanksgiving Day parade.

I have already discussed my intentions with the rest of my colleagues and they understand the situation. I do apologize if this leaves you in a tough situation, but I had to make the choice that was best for me and my family. I will cherish my time with the department and will look upon the mementoes I have accumulated with pride.

If you need to discuss this with me any further or you need more details, please feel free to call me at 000-000-0000 or email me at email@email.com. I would be more than happy to answer any questions or provide any information that would make this process easier.

Sincerely Yours,

Archie P. Walters”

City Glass Fire Department

Dade City, Florida 33523

July 1, 2019

Dear Mr Benzema,

I am writing to let you know that I will be resigning from my position as a volunteer docent at the City Glass fire department. My resignation is effective two weeks from this date.

I have thoroughly enjoyed my three years volunteering with this organization. I appreciate the warm friendships with like-minded artists and the opportunity to share our passion for this art form with the public. I especially enjoyed volunteering during the annual Christmas Fair, which allowed me to showcase some of my work.

I am sad to leave this organization, but I look forward to this new chapter in my life: pursuing a master’s degree. I will continue to follow the museum’s progress on social media and plan to attend as many events as possible. I will also be available to volunteer occasionally during school holidays and semester breaks. You can contact me at 334-768-9355 or mbnrj@gmail.com.

Thank you again for three wonderful years, and I look forward to following the fire department’s progress.

Sincerely,

Dear Luca,

I am writing to let you know that I will be resigning from my volunteering position as a firefighter, effective September 12, 2019.

Dear James Cassidy.

I’m writing to inform you that I intend to resign from my position as a firefighter volunteer at Station 11, effective on March 30. While I am grateful for my time in this position, I’ve been accepted to a medical school and want to focus on my studies. During this time, I can no longer work as a firefighter.

I appreciate the strong friendships and leadership skills I developed during my five years at this station. I’m grateful to my fellow firefighters and fire chief, who I shall sincerely miss. To help ensure a smooth transition in my absence, I can help by talking to recruits about the standard duties at Station 11.

Thank you once again for the opportunity to work at this station. Please let me know if you have any questions or additional ways I can facilitate this transition.

Sincerely,

Charles Avery”
