There may come a time in your life that you are asked to write a eulogy. The best way to start is to collect all the necessary biographical information about the person who has passed away and this can be done with a help of other family members, friends, co-workers.
People who attend funerals must be aware of the proper etiquettes to be observed during this time. Some people opt for giving a serious speech about accomplishments achieved by the deceased in their lifetime, while others can decide to take on a more humorous tone remembering the fun times, the good memories and the laughter shared. Many short poems exemplifies the theme of reassurance to the living that death is not the cessation of life but a continuation.
If you re afraid you might break down while in the middle of the eulogy and find yourself unable to recover, ask someone ahead of time to be ready to take over at a signal from you. Just like when our loved ones are at home with us and spend time in our living room. The service belongs to the family and is conducted as they wish.
To help you get started review the sample obituaries in our newsletter to help you. It is a wonderful idea to include any major achievements that occurred during the person's lifetime.
