Your exac request isn't possible because he passwords are not encrypted, they are hashed, which is basically a one way encryption that is very fast. Everytime a user does a login, the submitted password is rehashed and the result is checked against what is stored.
I would suggest creating a way for the users to "reset" their password. This would create a new random password and email it to the address you have in the system. Hen, when they login, they can change their password to something more memorable. This would take you out of the loop at least.
