here is a sample letter for your consideration:<\/p>\n

to whom it may concern:<\/em><\/p>\n

the undersigned was the partner in charge of the work performed as the independent accounting firm for abc manufacturing inc. for the period from february 1997 through july 2011.<\/em><\/p>\n

mr. person was the controller during that entire period and i worked closely with him, usually meeting with him a minimum of once a month and speaking on the phone multiple times each month.<\/em><\/p>\n

i have always found his work timely and exceptional and felt he was a valuable asset to my client.<\/em><\/p>\n

because of my long professional relationship with mr. person i am pleased to serve as a recommendation for him, and have no hesitancy to vouch for his ability, character and loyalty to his employer.<\/em><\/p>\n

if you have any comments or questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.<\/em><\/p>\n
