When I lost my mother there was no way on earth that I could have written a shopping list never mind poems for funeral tributes. The best poems for funerals are ones which you can visualize your loved one through, a certain word, phrase or even the entire poem should feel as if it was written about them.
Grief is much easier to deal with when you have a faith filled hope that a deceased loved one is connected to God and you in a relationship that may have changed, but has not ended. It requires that you sit down and think about the person who has passed on, and decide on the traits and stories that you want to share about their life. Many people call funeral poems death poems, I for one really hate this expression, as I said earlier everything about the funeral should reflect the person's life.
Writing about a person who is no longer alive is very difficult and writing about their death is worse. It is most important to make the obituary personal by reflecting the real person. If you attended school with the deceased, you might want to focus on your school days.
It is a chance to help others begin the transition to a life after the person's passing. Be sure, though, not to include anything that may offend or embarrass.
