You should always remember that the funeral is a way to celebrate their life, not their death. From writing the eulogy to the day of delivery, there are several things that should be taken into consideration so that everything will fall into place.
You are taking the time and expressing and sharing the love that you felt for that person. General poems can be read during the eulogy by the person performing the funeral. Written words can be much more effective than spoken condolences at reaching a grieving person's heart.
Ask other family members and friends to share their memories, anecdotes and stories of how that person touched their lives. Support in whatever form will be greatly appreciated by the bereaved and will weigh favorably on their acceptance of their situation. Noteworthy personal habits and a little humor are usually mixed in with mention of special accomplishments and attractive personality characteristics.
It is a tribute, do it justice. Practice delivering your eulogy in front of a mirror or a friend in order that you can see if improvements or additional editing have to be made.
