Dear both,
Teresa, I hope that your father’s health has stabilized, however, if you are unavailable tomorrow, it’s completely understandable. I am so sorry that you are having such a rough year!
Camille and I can meet tomorrow, and Teresa, you are of course welcome to either join or skip, just let one of us know if you can. The only thing that we are working on is the Lacey nomination, checking over Camille’s draft of the letter and statement.
Otherwise, Teresa, I seem to remember that you will be on holiday as of next week, so we can keep meeting without you, or even take a week off as well (we can discuss this tomorrow).
See you then,
Josh

Thank you for your email. Due to unforeseen circumstances I will be away from my desk until the end of August. Urgent inquiries can be sent to board@forestcitygallery.com

Hi Josh and Camille,

I'm sorry I didn't email you sooner. This weekend was busy with sending emails and getting updates. 

Teresa's father passed away on Thursday. The Gallery has sent flowers but upon her return to London we will also be getting her a gift card for some ready made meals or grocery delivery. Your names will be on the card as well. 

Teresa will be away until the end of August at least. Until then, feel free to reach out if you need me for anything. Happy to hop in on meetings.

Thanks for all you're doing!

Alex

Hi Alex,
Oh no, I am so sorry to hear this! Please do include our names on the card. What terrible tragic news.
We will continue with the project and will loop you in if and when needed.
Let me know if there’s anything else that we can do to help.

Hi Alex,

Thank you for this update, it is such terrible news... Thanks for including our names. I wonder if it would be possible for you to send me Teresa's address so that I can mail her a card? Also let us know if there is anything else we can do/contribute.

We'll keep you in the loop for the upcoming grant deadlines and if we have any questions regarding this.

Best,

Hi both, 

My dad passed away after a few traumatic days in ICU. I will not be returning to FCG work until later in August, however, like yesterday, I can still have a look over some things that are sent my way, but I'll otherwise be unavailable.

hi Teresa,
I am so, so sorry. My deepest condolences. This is really shocking news, and I feel terribly for you.
If there's anything you need, please don't hesitate to ask. I respect you so much, and would be happy to offer any support that I can.
Camille and I will keep you in the loop, but also out of respect for your need for some time and space, don't feel obliged to respond.

Dear Teresa,

I can only echo Josh's message. I am so, so sorry. My deepest condolences to you and your family. 
Please do not hesitate to reach out if there is anything we can offer, but again we will give you some space and will work independently for the next few weeks.

xoxo

Hi Camille,

In regards to grants, I'm seriously hoping that we have a signed lease by the end of the week for the new space and I'll be calling a venue committee meeting next week so please chime in with your availability because it would be great to have you at that meeting as we discuss both granting and fundraising for the space. Again - thanks to you, Josh, and Teresa for all you've been doing and all the rolling with the punches. 

For employee confidentiality I can't give out her address without her consent. You can mail to me and I'll drop it off to her when she's back in London or you can mail to the Gallery - although at the rate our mail gets stolen it might be better to send to me.

Hi Alex,

Yes, it is looking great with the lease being very close to being signed! My schedule is quite flexible and I'll make sure to attend the next venue committee meeting.
For the address - this totally makes sense, I'll mail it to yours then. Thanks for facilitating this.

Talk soon,
