There's one there under Lifting Conditions, but you could use something similar and just change the wording to make it appropriate. That is the style we sent for AOS. Good luck!

Do the affidavits need to be notarized or just written by the witness?

The instructions do not state that they need to be notarized - but some, us included, still get them notarized just to be on the safe side. If you have good solid evidence of bona fide marriage (in addition to the affidavits), I doubt that they would send you an RFE for not having them notarized. If you feel like your evidence isn't super strong, then maybe be on the safe side and get them notarized. It's fairly easy, fast and cheap.
