　　Dear Prof. Roger,

　　It is with great pleasure that I write this letter of recommendation for Mr. Wu Jinhua, who can well serve as a maintenance manager.

　　Mr. Wu has managed his team with great success since 2002. Throughout his years with us he has consistently displayed a remarkable ability not only to cope with various tough situations and but always to complete his task ahead of schedule.

　　I am sorry that Mr. Wu will soon leave for some personal reasons, but I know it is important to his future. I am sure he will make even greater achievements under your supervision. I have no doubt that Mr. Yang will be your ideal candidate.

　　Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

　　Sincerely yours,

　　Xiao Xiao
