\opening{To whom it may concern,}

Kamala Anupindi is a graduate student working for me at the 
Northeast Parallel Architectures Center at Syracuse University. 
I am hoping that she will be able to attend a conference in Europe in the 
summer (CONPAR 94 in Austria), 
however in order to do that she needs an extension of her visa
to allow her to return to the United States to continue her graduate 
studies.
I hope that this can be achieved as soon as possible.

\closing{Yours sincerely,}

\end{letter}
