Start by realizing the task at hand.
The main purpose of writing a eulogy is to bring back the deceased person in front of the audience in
attendance. Your overview should reflect on the good deeds of the deceased through the memories of
the past life. A good Eulogy should try as much as possible to feature every audience in attendance and
make them have a fond remembrance of the person. It should bring in the interaction between the
audience who had interacted previously with the deceased.
Recall your own memories.
You must have been with the deceased and must have spent time with him/her before the passing. If
you have not been together then you have nothing to put across and you are not the one supposed to be
writing the Eulogy.
Now you need to share as much as possible as you remember in the time that you have been together
with the deceased. Paint a good picture of the best moments that you shared together; This will help
bring people to realize how the deceased was important in their lives and appreciate him/her.
In many cases there will be a boost to recall the memories by use of funeral songs and funeral poems.
Gather information about the deceased.
Since you are going to give a speech you have to prepare in time days before the day that you are
required to give the speech. Within the period you should gather information by collecting it from
people who have been close to the deceased. There are several important things that should never miss
in a Eulogy. Some of these things are;
The Deceased's date of birth
Family relationships and friends
Educational background
Employment and Career
Hobbies and what the deceased loved so much to be remembered for.
Places the deceased has resided
