Just because I'm leaving now doesn't mean that the fun and the camaraderie should end here. You can always look me up on facebook or feel free to send me an email any time.

After office hours, I'd like to invite you guys to enjoy one last happy hour with me at [place/bar] at the [location]. I feel this is the best time to celebrate and say our farewells.
