Further to our previous letter - deaths abroad

Dear colleague. You have received our memo about dealing with deaths abroad. You would have found attached a standard letter to issue in the case of a death abroad. Regrettably, that letter is to be withdrawn due to it potentially causing offence to the recipient. Please use the link to find the new, approved letter to send if these circumstances arise. Please note the space to include a reference to a romantic partner. It is felt that this will personalise the letter somewhat more than previously.

Dear Mrs ******
It is with trepidation that I pass on the sad news that dear Alexandra expired yesterday. It seems our cherished Alexandra was unfortunate enough to be caught in a volcanic eruption. She was never one for a volcano which makes this all the more tragic. I am pleased to relay that at the time she was partying with Donald Duck; they were very much in love. I hope that alleviates the pain somewhat.
Yours...
