Today many people are shying away from traditional memorial services and choosing instead to create a memorable, personalized life celebration. The death of a loved one is never easy and even if when expected it always hurts.
Maybe you're unsure of your ability to manage your emotions as you share your memories of your loved one. I didn't manage to write my own poem but what I did find were some very fitting poems for funeral tributes in a book that I found after a long search through the internet. Writing an obituary is often helpful when someone close has died or may be dying.
You can see yourself reading the eulogy as a way putting in a good word for the person on behalf of many of those present. You may choose to concentrate on a particular aspect of life of the deceased. If you were best friends since high school or college, then talk about the good times you had and how he helped you during those years.
