I wouldn't have thought you would need a special template for this - merely
complete the information you wish to impart in a letter and use mail merge
to merge the customers' names and addresses into the appropriate parts of
the letter. This is pretty standard fare for Word.

Hello Charles,

Thank you for your response.

However, we do not have a Legal Department. We are a very small company.

My boss asked me to find a template letter which an inform all of our
customers that someone has left our company. He does not want to have to
write it himself. He would like to have an example. Do you know where I can
find this? All I keep finding are examples of resignations written in the
first person.

Thank you.
Adrienne

Hello Graham,

Thank you for your reply; however, I may not have made my request clear. My
boss asked me to find a template letter which can inform all of our customers
that someone has left our company. He does not want to have to write it
himself. He would like to have an example. Do you know where I can find
this? All I keep finding are examples of resignations written in the first
person.

Thank you.

An announcement stating that so and so had departed form ABC company for a new
adventure. And that your company wishes him well in his new endeavor.

Hello Tom,
Thank you for the reply. However, my boss is requesting something more than
a mere sentence or two. He would like more. I am not sure how I can do this
unless, I just write about his accomplishments within the company. Do you
have any other ideas?
Adrienne :)

If your boss knows what he is looking for, he should write it himself.
Anyhow, technically this group is not intended to advise on the actual
content of Word documents, although there is a flaw in the MS template site
that directs people here. You may have better luck just googling the web
for examples, try PR sites or press releases that announce someone's
departure.

You can search the internet for some do-it-yourself "legal" forms and
templates. Of course, you get what you pay for. If you look long enough
you might find something useful. Of course, the boss could write a hundred
of these letters in the time it will take you to find something, but a
person has to have priorities and your boss certainly has some here. Sounds
like an opportunity for some good clean fun. If the boss's top priority is
that he or she does not write the letter, you could tell him you will take a
few days off to find one and I'll write one for you. No fee. Meanwhile,
you could be off somewhere enjoying yourself instead of working for the
boss. Or you could write it yourself but tell the boss you found it on the
internet--you could spice it up with some dramatic story about where you
found it. Perhaps from the people who run the famous Nigerian letter hoax?
Perhaps from a high desert commune whose members are upset that they where
not beamed up into space when the Hale-Bopp comet passed by a few years ago
and who believe that writing template letters for businesses while awaiting
the comet's return allows them to communicate with a higher force.
