Writing a eulogy to remember and honor your mother is one of the most difficult things you will ever have to do. It is a time of great loss, grief and mourning, and though it is an honor to be chosen to write a eulogy for your parent, it can also be quite painful. Because of this, it is a good idea to find a quiet place to think and write - even if it's the library. Then, once you are ready, think about the things you recall most and what comes to mind about mom and put them on paper so you won't forget. You don't need to write each thing out word for word. Make a formal or informal outline and jot down the details so you will be speaking from the heart, not reading a speech. Your outline could look something like this: Vital statistics (Birth date, Birth City/State, College, Worked as a___, Married Dad in 19__ and had 5 of us kids. Also close to her sister Carol and brother Michael...plus anything else you feel you want to add) Was a teacher most of her life, even when she could have retired Her 50th birthday Teaching us how to cook - and we (burnt the food, made a great dinner and surprised dad, etc.) Taking us fishing - she was great at it and loved it Humorous story - Someone came home after curfew and she was standing outside in old bathrobe to embarrass us and teach us a lesson; someone broke window with baseball, etc. How much she meant & how she will be remembered Of course, a eulogy will be unique to each family and their experiences. If there are brothers and sisters, ask them each for a remembrance and if your father is still alive, ask him as well. The idea is that in just a few points a eulogy can be a great tribute that people will be able to identify with. It has the power to cheer the individuals in attendance and help them deal with their grief. A good eulogy does not have to be perfect. It is more important that a eulogy come from the heart with dignity, respect and love. Those qualities come across to the audience and connect them to the individual delivering the eulogy, the family and the deceased. You can write and deliver a good eulogy about mom because moms are special in every family in different ways. If the audience is able to understand what made her so special, you will have written a eulogy mom would like.
