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. A funeral doesn t have to be family and friends sitting in front of a dead body saying the rosary.
It need not only be a summation of the public facts, but a glimpse of the uniqueness, when combined with those facts, created a personality. Standing up in front of so many of her friends and family to say the final goodbye's helped me to finally accept that she'd gone, even though it was the hardest thing I'd ever had to do in my life. Just having someone else on the stand by will put your mind at ease.
Many times we just don't know how to realize that they are home, home with God. If you were best friends since high school or college, then talk about the good times you had and how he helped you during those years. Using poetry to help with grief, to express love or pain and to memorialize a friend or family member is very powerful and will be appreciated by others who have experienced a loss.
While overwhelming, it does not need to be confusing. To be asked to deliver a memorial tribute is to be given the responsibility of assisting many.
