Dear Louie,
I was saddened to hear of your departure. Over the past 3 and a half months, it has been truly inspiring to witness your growth.
I have observed two significant developments: you have become notably kinder and gentler, and you have truly mastered the art of culinary leadership. Your lemon vinaigrette, in particular, is a personal favorite – I find myself using it on everything!
I wish you all the best in the next chapter of your life.
Sincerely,
Steve
