I have never doubted that you committed to this role for the best motives and with the best intentions, and I understand that sometimes our best plans go awry.

Consequently, we need to replace your position on the team for the remainder of the __________[term]. Again, thank you, _______________[name], for the support you have given to _______________[county] County Cooperative Extension. Remember, we’re here to serve the people of this community, and we continue to welcome your input and your participation in our programs. Sincerely,
