Dear Sir,

I, Rita John, am writing this letter to request to you please close the bank account of my mother, Mrs. Helen John, who maintained her savings account with account number 788956 with your esteemed bank from last two decades.

I would like to inform you that my mother, Mrs. Helen John, passed away a week ago in a car accident on May 27th, 2022. Being her only child, the responsibility of all her finances are on me and I do not require any more bank accounts. Therefore, I am writing this letter to kindly close this account as I no longer require it.

Please find attached all the documents that will be required for closing this bank account. I would also like you transfer all the funds in this account to the account the details of which have been shared below:

Account Name: Rita John

Bank Name: New Era Bank

I will be really grateful if you could have this application processed at the earliest.

Thanking you.

Sincerely,

Rita John
