Leave Application for the Death of Mother-in-law

Sub: Leave application for sudden the death of Mother in law

Madam,

With deep grief and sorrow, I have to tell you that my mother-in-law died of heart attack today. The whole family is in shock. Rites and rituals are being conducted at home for his eternal peace. I need to be here to attend the family members.

Hence I request you to grant me a week leave. 

Yours Obediently
