Subject: Death Announcement Letter

Dear Juliana,

I am deeply saddened to inform you that our beloved grandmother passed away in her sleep last night. As you know, she had been suffering from kidney failure for some time now. We are relieved that her passing was peaceful and painless. She was at home after getting her surgery and we were looking after her at our residence. But on 04^th January, 2014 in the morning at around 10.00 am she got sick. She was finding trouble in inhalation so we took her to the hospital.

Doctors tried their best to bring her back to normal but everything went in vain and our beloved grandmother passed away. The funeral will be held on 07th January, 2014, 2010 at St. Sebastian Chapel with the Morning Prayer at around 8.00 am. I request you to please be there on time. From the bottom of my heart I pray to God that may her soul rest in peace.

Yours truly,

Mr. Morris Deed
