Dear John, Hope this letter finds you in good health and spirits. I’m writing to apologize to you for not attending your 50th birthday celebration and being unable to cancel in advance. First of all, wish you a belated Happy Birthday. I’m extremely sorry for missing your birthday party and not calling you to cancel. Last month, I was extremely busy with my office work. I had to leave to overseas within a short intimation for a month to train the staff there. I was fully occupied with back to back meetings and moreover there is no feasibility of making international calls using my network because of that I couldn’t be able to call y and inform you about my cancellation. To fulfill this, I have planned a week vacation together to visit Maldives and I wanted to celebrate your Birthday there with a surprise party. Hope you will be able to make it up. Waiting to see you soon. Your friend Joe
