By way of thanks for what you tried to do.

True, I was only doing my job, but people sometimes feel the need to add a word or two of personal thanks.

And you don't even have a word of thanks for us.

I too should like to start with a few words of thanks.

Johnson did so, but never heard a word of thanks, in public or private.

A century and a half ago an address of thanks could have been put into small space.

Before the movie, he said a few words of thanks to the audience.

Without a word of thanks he dropped the line in the water.

He was given a letter of thanks from the King for this act.

At this point I would also like to direct a word of thanks to the industry.
