Shell,
I am writing to inform you that your eldest sister is deceased. Services will not be held in any formal setting here as celebrations have begun already and will undoubtedly continue for quite some time. On top of this news, the Wizard has left Oz. It has been deemed that I will take up that mantle until a permanent government can be implemented.
Sincerely,
Lady Glinda Chuffrey
PS: There is no reason for you to visit. I offer my condolences and accept yours in return. I know you have sensitive matters to care to and I would not wish to distract you from them.
