The attorney-in-fact can simply resign in writing if they wish to end their responsibilities under the POA.
The principal can revoke the POA in writing, in much the same form as the original POA document. The revocation should name the AIF, the date she/he was appointed and that the Power of Attorney has been revoked as of the date of the revocation. A copy should be provided to any entity or facility where the POA had been used. If it involved the ability to sell real estate the revocation should be recorded in the land records.
