I would also add some sort of warning about absolutely everything that his new job will entail and the fact that he will not be able to do it all, stay sane, maintain a workable work:life balance and remain in good health.  This is from one whose boss died while in full time employment due to work/stress etc.

This will also give you a good basis for setting down exactly how you will make his life so much easier, maintain the efficiency of the department and 'keep your bosses boss of your bosses back'.

Don't forget to use examples too.
