sam cooke funeral

Our society is one that has long incorporated ceremony into important events. It is considered a great honor to be asked to write a eulogy and while the whole purpose of an eulogy is to speak from the heart while commemorating the person who has passed away, there are a few things to remember to help you along with writing an eulogy.

Some people even write it themselves and some choose to just quote a William Shakespeare or some famous poem. Some people opt for giving a serious speech about accomplishments achieved by the deceased in their lifetime, while others can decide to take on a more humorous tone remembering the fun times, the good memories and the laughter shared. You will undoubtedly find clues as to the type of music the deceased most enjoyed and even particular albums, tapes, and CDs by specific artists.

It is wise to develop a theme to give focus on your speech. A funeral poem should about the person and their journey through life more than writing down your feelings. Organize the materials that you have gathered, pick the data that you will need then prepare an outline.

Funeral services are meant to celebrate the lives of lost love ones. It should be written and delivered from the heart.
