samples of writing someone's eulogy

[PJ]

I need to write my ex-husband's eulogy as funeral will be Saturday. Any
assistance is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

You're kidding, right? You want perfect strangers to write a eulogy for
some poor dead guy we don't know?

Is it April 1 already?

EX-husband? You were divorced? This link should get you started.

You're a better exwife than I am. (No one would want me to write my ex's
eulogy.) You must have had a very special relationship with him.

But, if an ex-wife has to ask for help from a complete stranger to write a
eulogy....???

would.

It's hard to believe that someone wants help here but the obituaries in
newspapers might provide a model. For my sister, I just wrote and later
read what I felt. My nieces were quite appreciative.

It's easier to believe that she wants help than to believe that she came
here to have her motives questioned.

Thanks for offering the former instead of the latter.
