5

Review & Refine

Guidance for Writing Eulogies

Aim for 5-7 minutes - long enough to honor their life, respectful of the service

Share specific stories - concrete memories resonate more than general statements

Balance sadness with celebration - acknowledge grief while honoring their life

Include their impact on others - how they touched family, friends, and community

It's okay to show emotion - pausing to compose yourself is completely natural

Practice beforehand - familiarity with the words helps manage emotions

Bring a printed copy - having a backup helps if emotions overwhelm you

Remember: this is a gift - your words honor their memory and comfort those grieving

🎤

Delivery Guidance

Practice Beforehand

Read your eulogy aloud several times. Familiarity helps manage emotions during delivery.

Bring a Printed Copy

Have a backup on paper in case emotions become overwhelming or technology fails.

Take Your Time

Speak slowly and pause when needed. There's no rush - the audience is with you.

It's Okay to Show Emotion

Pausing to compose yourself is natural and shows the depth of your connection.

Have a Backup Reader

Ask someone to be ready to step in if emotions make it too difficult to continue.
