Hi John,
I'm usually pretty quiet here, but I wanted to let you know that I have benefited immensely from you past postings and appreciate your efforts here very much.
I respect your decision to do what you feel is necessary, and you certainly don't owe anyone here anything, but I hope you'll decide to stick around.
Thanks,
