I understand that the main responsibility of the project was given to me and this meeting is highly important, I really feel sorry for not attending the meeting as not everyone gets such a chance.
Well regarding the assistance to the project I recommend _________ .he is very capable and I know him from past three years and have delegated many of my responsibilities with perfection. I would send him to you for a discussion and you can judge yourself his capabilities and I leave it to the management for the selection of the same. I have prepared all the notes pertaining to the project and the papers are lying with me. I will forward that also with ____________ and I hope this will be a help to you all.
I can’t explain how helpless I feel about this. But health comes first and my family also wants me to take rest. I assure you that I will be a good support and you can rely on me for any assistance. Please feel free to call me and discuss any issues.
Thanking you.
