I'm not seeing something specific to that, but it could qualify as Commuting on a Bus - the character isn't completely written off and, despite not actually appearing, the letter indicates they're still out there. Maybe Downplayed Commuting on a Bus?

Hey, this is driving me crazy, but I'm trying to locate the trope for a situation where someone has left a series for whatever reason (actor's death, actor fired, etc.) and they send a letter back that speaks for them. Can you tell me what this trope is called? Thanks!
