It is not necessary that a eulogy be a detailed summary of how the deceased person spent his life, but rather it can concentrate on particular positive situations or circumstances. Writing a poem for parent's funeral can be near impossible, you've just lost one or both of the most loving people in the world and writing a funeral poem is probably going to be impossible.
Hopefully you have the love and support of family and friends throughout this painful time. A eulogy that presents itself well is one that displays the humorous and loving nature of the deceased. There is typically little research that needs to be done.
If you know the person very well and you would like to write it in your own words about that person, you could do that too. If you attended school with the deceased, you might want to focus on your school days. If you are a family member you might want to talk about his childhood.
Writing a eulogy for someone you knew well and probably loved can be a difficult thing to do. Humor is an appropriate way to celebrate life.
