LETTER OF RESIGNATION



January 25, 2002



Speaker Jim Kreider:

Missouri House of Representatives

State Capitol Building

201 Capitol Ave.

Room 308

Jefferson City, MO 65101



Dear Mr. Speaker:



Please accept my letter of resignation as State Representative of the 82nd District effective 4:15 p.m., Monday, January 28, 2002. It has been a privilege and an honor to serve my neighbors and the state of Missouri for the last seven plus years.



My personal responsibilities have grown to a point where I am unable to meet the high standards that I have set for myself since entering this office in 1995.



My resignation now will allow the Governor to call for a special election at the earliest possible date, hence minimizing the time my constituents will be without an elected representative.



It has been a tremendous life-changing experience to serve in the Missouri House of Representatives.



Sincerely,



/s/ David L. Levin
