Dear Ken,
It is with regret that I have to inform you that I will not be attending the
conference. I had been so looking forward to coming and meeting with you all. I
would like to purchase a copy of the conference proceedings and would appreciate
it if you would reserve me a copy. I hope all goes well and I trust that my
place can be filled by someone from your waiting list.
Yours sincerely
Donald Dunbar
Head of Architecture
