Some opt to use these poems as part of their eulogies. During this traumatic and emotionally overwhelming time, we will also be faced with making the arrangements necessary for funeral services.
Also while it would be possible to go on for hours how this particular person touched your life, it is advisable to keep it relatively short so that the message you are trying to convey is clear, precise and sticks in the mind of listeners. Like all particulars of the funeral the music should reflect the individual personality of the deceased. Sometime you find yourself not saying anything at all and that can be even worse than saying the wrong thing.
If your voice starts to crack, take a deep breath and read slower. They become a reflection of ancestors lives for generations to come. The service belongs to the family and is conducted as they wish.
It is a chance to help others begin the transition to a life after the person's passing. Remember to prepare and organize your thoughts.
