Death is never easy, there is nothing to cushion its blow or minimize the pain of it. There is a growing collection of funeral poems.
I didn't manage to write my own poem but what I did find were some very fitting poems for funeral tributes in a book that I found after a long search through the internet. Only time heals such grief but in the mean while if there are words of comfort sometimes they help the grieving people by giving them a different perspective of the unfortunate event. Included in the details of these funeral burial services are a number of choices including a person to lead the service, flowers, music, and even photos if you choose to honor the deceased in this way.
Take your time, take several deep breaths before you start reading. A feature of successful eulogies is that they will include comment on the positive impact the person had on other people along the way, especially on the speaker and others present at the funeral. People often wonder whether it's proper to include humor in a eulogy.
