Well back when I resigned in 1990, I pretty well had to wing it. Much to my surprise, it actually worked without a hitch.
Hope this helps:
Dear Pres XXXX:
I am writing this letter to resign from the COJCOLDS and I hereby renounce my membership therein.
I am doing so freely of my own will for reasons that needn't be discussed here or ever. I simply choose to become a non-Mormon. I do not wish excommunication, church court, or any action other than removal of my name from all Church records.
This must be done as a private matter between me and Church officials only. By doing exactly as I request, the Church will avoid any legal measures that I might otherwise pursue.
I also request that I be notified in writing by the appropriate Church officials that my name has indeed been removed from all Church records.
Thank you kindly for your prompt attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
XXX X XXXXXXX
