Sorry, this is a slightly tricky one.
I know E through a professional organisation we belong to. She has recently joined a hobby group that I attend, and we get on very well, although we don't see each other frequenty (perhaps once every 6 weeks).
E recently advised that her elder brother was extremely unwell (terminally ill with a prognosis of a few weeks) and therefore couldn't attend any meetings of professional/hobby group. I send some flowers on behalf of the hobby group with a card from all members as E is well liked.
Since then, E's brother has died.
I need to contact E about something to do with the hobby group (change to details of next meeting). I want to express my sympathies again as at the time we sent flowers, her brother was still alive. I don't want to bog her down though, nor do I wish to make her feel she must attend our meeting if she feels unable.
Does this sound suitable.
Dear E
Once again, please accept my sympathies for the loss of your brother.
I don't wish to make you feel obliged to attend, but just to advise you that we are considering moving [hobby meeting] to [changed details] as [reason].
Obviously, we would love to see you, but fully appreciate that you have a lot on your plate to deal with right now, and if there is anything that I can do to help with [professional group] or [hobby] please let me know.
Best wishes
Hanu
Is this anywhere near alright? Need to send today but still tying myself in knots over how to convey two messages in one email.
