Funerals are meant to provide a proper send off to the dead, as well as provide an opportunity to the living to pay their last respects to the deceased. It also helps the friends and family of the deceased to accept the devastating loss and start the process of acceptance and healing. You can reflect the life of your loved one through funeral tributes at the memorial service.

If you have been asked to give a speech, take time to prepare. This will help you know what to say and what to leave out. It will also help you prepare psychologically to honor the deceased person. You can opt to write down your main thoughts so as to avoid loosing your train of thought when giving your speech.

Try and share some of the happy or most striking moments you shared with the person. To connect with the crowd, share something that the audience can identify with, such as a familiar character trait or habit of the deceased. Do your research by talking to friends and family of the deceased, so as to have a better understanding of the person.
