Subject: Yesterday's awards ceremony
Mr. Skolnik,
We were all concerned about your sudden illness yesterday and hope that you are feeling better
today. I know that you will feel reassured to learn that last night's awards ceremony went very
well despite your absence. We had Kazadi Koite lead both items 3 and 4, and I am happy to
report that he did an excellent job. The CEO of B.J. Technology accepted the award for “most
environmentally friendly company” on his company's behalf and expressed great delight on
receiving it. The reception was enjoyed by all. We had reserved the room for only three
hours,and some guests stayed until the last possible moment. More guests attended than we
expected, so we barely had enough room for everyone. Perhaps we should ask for a bigger
room next year. Rooms 2 and 3 are also small, but either room 4 or room 6 would be a good
size, I think. Even though the ceremony and reception were a great
success, I have several other ideas for improvements for next year ceremony. We can discuss
them when you return to work. Please rest well. We hope to see you healthy and back at work
soon.
