Dear Mr. Karem,

I hope this letter finds you great. I am writing to apologize for not attending the new office ceremony due to some circumstances related to my family.

Firstly, when I was getting dressed, my mom fell on the ground, and unfortunately, she broke her arm. As a result, I had to take her to the doctor as soon as possible to get her diagnosed and treated.

Additionally, my older sister is married and living 50 km away from our home and my younger sister studies at a foreign university. Therefore, I was the only person who could go with her and look after her.

Finally, I hope you accept my apologies for not attending such an important event, and as a compensation, I would request to do clients’ visits instead of my colleagues to display our company’s new branch service.

Please accept my sincerest apologies, and thank you for constant understanding and support.

Sincerely,

Mohamed Anwar
