This is perhaps one of the most difficult moments in one's life. A funeral doesn t have to be family and friends sitting in front of a dead body saying the rosary.
It need not only be a summation of the public facts, but a glimpse of the uniqueness, when combined with those facts, created a personality. Personal experiences are expected to be re told and reminisced, and to be shared with other people who will be listening. Often times you will be able to get a discount or added services because you are being referred by a member of your church.
If several people talk about the deceased this area becomes even more poignant. People often wonder whether it's proper to include humor in a eulogy. Poems ranging from heartfelt and sad to lighthearted and even funny have been written by amateur and professional poetry writers to put words to the feelings that are expressed after someone has died.
Above all, remember to breathe. Speak from the heart so that your sincerity will be reflected in your eulogy.
