Dear Mr. Beasley:
I regret to have to inform you that I am going to need to resign from my seat on the
South Florida Workforce Investment Board.
My work responsibilities have grown tremendously in the past two years and it has
made traveling to Miami for the board meetings increasingly difficult. I know you need
active board members that you can count on to be in attendance at meetings.
I would have loved to have been able to be a more active board member. If ever need
to reach out or have special projects that you might need assistance with from time to
time, please feel I free to call on me.
Please let your staff know that I appreciate their professionalism and the hard work they
do every day.
Thank you for your time and your consideration. I wish you success in all your future
endeavors.
Warm regards,
Karen Thurman
