Letter of Appreciation to Co-worker

An office newcomer thanks a co-worker for showing him the ropes.

Dear [Name],

It is remarkable to think that ten months ago I was still feeling my way through the company. There were days when I was trying to figure out the workflow and process within our department which can be quite frustrating for someone new. I felt like a fish out of water most of the time. But you've helped me through that.

Now, I look back on that time with a bit of amusement. The things that seemed so difficult then are a breeze now and the office has become a completely comfortable environment for me to thrive in. Thank you for going out on a limb to assist me during those times. I really appreciate the encouragement and support you have given me.

If I can ever return the favor, please let me know. I would gladly be of help.

Cheers,

Non-Religious Holiday Message

Dear friend,

The thing I like best about this holiday season is that it gives us an opportunity to tell our family and friends just how much they mean to us. It's so easy to get caught up in the drama and distractions of our everyday lives that we sometimes forget to share our feelings with those who mean the most to us. With this in mind, I would like to thank you for being one of those special people who has managed to make my year wonderful!

I hope your home is bright with love and joy at this time of the year!

Best wishes,
