A funeral may often be just as elaborately planned as a wedding. Although death is one of the things that are certain in life, most if not all people still find it difficult to deal with it when placed in this situation.
The best eulogy would be a combination of both mentioned above, done in good taste and with a positive outlook. Some of the poems will make you and others around you cry because you can see them in each word or verse, this is also good as it helps with the grieving and healing process. For those of us that do, the notice is usually short, and the task must be done under the stresses of coping with the loss of someone very special to us.
This may include a request for a certain person to perform the service, the choosing of particular flowers, and even the selection of funeral music. A feature of successful eulogies is that they will include comment on the positive impact the person had on other people along the way, especially on the speaker and others present at the funeral. Noteworthy personal habits and a little humor are usually mixed in with mention of special accomplishments and attractive personality characteristics.
Don't worry if it runs just a bit longer, take a deep breath and try to relax. While overwhelming, it does not need to be confusing.
