ALL business correspondance needs to be short, sweet. Like this:

(Company so-and-so),

I hereby resign from (Company so-and-so) effective (Date) at (Time).

Regards, (Your name).

The people who know you and like you will continue to. Call them in 6 months to a year. The person reading the letter doesn't need to know who you liked.
