During funerals, many people are careful about the words they say or actions they do in front of the grieving family members. It is not necessary that a eulogy be a detailed summary of how the deceased person spent his life, but rather it can concentrate on particular positive situations or circumstances.
If you have been asked to deliver a eulogy, appreciate the honor you have been given. In some cases, the deceased has already made their own funeral arrangements years prior to their death and perhaps they had details that they felt were important to include in their funeral. A supporter is someone who you know and trust who can take over from you if you start to become overwhelmed, don't worry this is very natural, even the biggest and toughest men break down in these situations.
Remember even if it is a sea of strangers in front of you, not one person will judge you for it. Do not try to embellish your story with half truths or lies. A feature of successful eulogies is that they will include comment on the positive impact the person had on other people along the way, especially on the speaker and others present at the funeral.
It takes time to grow in love, faith and hope. Writing a eulogy for someone you knew well and probably loved can be a difficult thing to do.
