  Mr Stuart,
  
  I would like to request a personal leave to attend the funeral of my paternal grandfather. The funeral will be in Arizona and I will be flying out tonight. I expect to be gone from the office from October 3 to October 4. I will report back to work on Wednesday, October 5.
  
  I have several projects that I am currently working on and they will not be affected by my departure for 2 days. I will be available by phone during the leave and you can contact me any time for questions.
  
  Regards,

  Mr Stuart,
  
  My Grandfather has passed away on February 4th, 2011. I was very close to my grandfather as he helped raised me and my brothers. I would like to attend his funeral, which is taking place on February 6th in New York. I would like to ask for a leave of absence from February 5th to 6th so that I can pay my last respects. I will be back on the 7th of February.
  
  I am currently working on the Davidson account and my team including John Smith and Robert Redford can cover my work until I return. I will have my cell phone with me and can be contacted on that during working hours for any questions during my leave.
  
  Sincerely,
  
  (Signature)
  David Pine
