In some cases, the surviving family members will address all the funeral details when they make the arrangements. 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.
The best services mix memories, comfort and encouragement. The person delivering the eulogy must show the reasons why the deceased is well loved and will be missed by the people around him. Burial customs vary enormously depending on culture.
Pulling together a selection of memories and comments about those things can be a remarkable way to begin to deal with your own grief. Typically, a eulogy runs around five to ten minutes in length. If the deceased was a practical joker or light-hearted individual, maybe a poem that incorporates a bit of humor would remind their family of what a happy spirit that individual was.
As hard as it may seem right now, it gets better. Giving a eulogy is an honor.
