Death is never easy, there is nothing to cushion its blow or minimize the pain of it. 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.
Services are really about love. In this part of a tribute, the deceased person's life is summed up in a few paragraphs. To do all this, while being coherent enough to express how deeply departed one has touched your soul and doing justice to his or her memory is a difficult task indeed.
This will help you not only to gather all the information to be included or mentioned in the eulogy, but also to enable you to decide early on the tone your writing will take. Eulogies can take a chronological approach, where the eulogist traces the person's life in the order in which it happened. 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.
Draft your eulogy then try to edit and polish your work. Grief is not something we can simply set aside.
