Example Thank you Notes


Often it is difficult to know what to write for a simple thank you note. Below are several examples that should be modified to fit your specific situation.




Support after family death

Dear Mr. Fuentes:

I am writing to thank you for you thoughtfulness. The time following the death of my father was very difficult, and you being there for me has made this difficult time easier to bear.

Thanks so much.

Gift

Dear Ms. Fuentes:

I am writing to thank you for the gift certificate to Rita's Restaurant. My husband and I plan to go to dinner at Rita's Restaurant next week, and we will enjoy using your kind and generous gift. Thanks again for thinking of me on my birthday.

Thanks so much.

Appreciation for outstanding work

Dear Super 6 Inn Staff:

I am writing to you to thank the staff at the Super 6 Inn. The reservation mix-up could have ruined my entire honeymoon, but with the hard work of your staff, my wife and I were able to find another suite at another hotel. I especially want to thank Wendy at the front desk for all her diligence and hard work. My wife and I look forward to our next stay at Super 6. Thanks again.

Thanks so much.
