Helping a Friend to Write a Eulogy Was Never This Hard

July 31st, 2009 . by admin

It was a terrible accident.  A collision between a motorcycle traveling at a high rate of speed and a large deer with never have a good result.  The result of this accident was the end of a young man’s life and the devastation of his family and friends.  I didn’t know him personally, but one of my good friends did.  She was even asked to help write his eulogy.  She asked me in tears, “How do you write a eulogy for a friend?  How do you get past your grief and think of something to say?”  I offered to help and spent a lot of time listening to her talk about him and making notes.  She used my notes and wrote a beautiful passage that was very heartfelt.  I was glad I could help.
