Have you ever seen e.g. a pizza joint, bowling alley, etc shut down? You could write the letter that gets posted in the window with a Markov chain. It is practically identical to the widely satirized language used by startups.
"After 43 years in business, Joe's Pizza will be shutting down after July 10th. Thanks for your patronage over the years. We'll miss you."
Modulo individual stylistic choices, this is the appropriate level of social niceties between a business and a customer. Joe's Pizza is not obligated to say that their bookkeeper embezzled $300k, they misjudged the pizza market, or Joe's heart just isn't in pizza anymore. You paid, you got your pie, and you and Joe are even.
