A lot of people read out poems at wakes and funerals. A funeral speech is possibly the most important speech that you have ever written.
Grief is much easier to deal with when you have a faith filled hope that a deceased loved one is connected to God and you in a relationship that may have changed, but has not ended. Eulogies may be written in various ways. 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.
The need to talk is an outlet of letting out all of their feelings about the situation. Memories are bound to come up during your conversation with the aggrieved, and no matter how repetitive it might become, just try to be patient in listening. A poem you write for someone you know of might just bring the same reassuring message to other families who suffer through death.
Remember to prepare and organize your thoughts. In this case, it is incumbent on the family to simply put into motion the decisions already made by their loved one.
