The purpose of the eulogy is to pay tribute to the deceased as a distinct individual, with unique talents and gifts, who will live on in the memories of the people who loved him. When a precious loved one has died, you need prayers and empathy.
When you are grieving, it is normal that your thoughts are about death, but remember it is about celebrating a life lived as well. Just sit down and write from your heart. Just having someone else on the stand by will put your mind at ease.
Usually it is a family member or close friend who is asked to deliver it. To add a poem to your eulogy or condolence letter, first you must consider who the person was and what they would have appreciated or enjoyed read. The tapestry of their human life is finished and hanging in the living room of God's house.
There are many facets to planning a funeral. It takes time to grow in love, faith and hope.
