ABC's Of Giving A Funeral One Life Tribute

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.

Even if you know the deceased well, you must take time to prepare what you are going to say. This is because this may be a hard ordeal or an emotional time for you, so you have to pull yourself together. Writing down your speech may help you remember what you are going to say.

Think through your memories of the person. Highlight any memories that you can comfortably share with other people. Preferably, it should be something that other people in the service can be able to identify with. Talking to other people who were close to the deceased will give you great points to talk about.

Talk about the impact the deceased had on your life and in other people's lives. Highlight any life lessons you learned from them. Allow yourself to speak from your heart. Remember to introduce yourself and state how you are related to the deceased as other people may not know you.

Try as much as possible to control your emotions. It is okay to show your emotions, as long as you can regain your composure and continue with your speech. Try and offer comfort to the family members of the deceased, even as you talk about their loved one.

Keep your speech short. This is because there would probably be other people waiting to give funeral tributes. You may include some bit of humor if the situation allows or if the deceased was a jovial person. Choose your words carefully and do not idolize the deceased.
