Dear Ms. Vance,


I am writing to formally request a leave of absence, as I have experienced a tragic loss in my family. I am in need of time off to attend to funeral arrangements and to support my loved ones during this difficult time.


I kindly request a compassionate leave from March 17, 2075, to March 26, 2075. I understand the importance of my responsibilities at SilverLining Technologies and have made arrangements with my team to ensure a smooth transition during my absence. My colleague, Jeffrey Matthews, has graciously agreed to handle my responsibilities and is fully aware of the pending projects and tasks that need to be completed.


Should any urgent matters arise during my absence, I can be reached at my email address. I will make it a priority to respond as promptly as possible. However, kindly note that response times may be slightly delayed due to the circumstances.


Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to returning on March 27, 2075, and continuing to contribute to the success of SilverLining Technologies.


Yours sincerely,

Ronald Jones
