> Dear Helen and Jennifer,

> I am writing to let you know that we are all set for the memorial service tomorrow. In addition, there is one item that I wanted to bring to your attention as it relates to a potential delay in traffic on Rockville Pike/355. As part of a construction project near the Medical Center Metro, traffic on both sides of Rockville Pike/355 SOUTH of Stone Ridge may be stopped for 10-15 minutes between 10:00-11:00 am. As such, you may want to alert your guests to allow for some extra time for their commute to campus tomorrow.
>
> More detailed information regarding the status of the construction can be found at the bottom of this email.

> Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions.

> Kind regards,
