new york funeral services

Losing a family member or close friend can be devastating and can have a lasting effect on all who knew the person who has passed. It is a sensitive time and a sad one for anyone dealing with the loss of a loved one.

In this part of a tribute, the deceased person's life is summed up in a few paragraphs. These three words are enough to convey to the grieving person that you understand the importance of the deceased person in his life and that you share his sadness. More than talking, listening is very important during funerals.

Rehearse your eulogy with a family member or a friend to get their feedback, so you can edit if it is necessary. Eulogies are meant to convey the reasons the deceased will be missed and how much he was loved. Eulogies can take a chronological approach, where the eulogist traces the person's life in the order in which it happened.

No one will be timing you, with a stopwatch, so take your time. Giving a eulogy is an honor.
