A eulogy is a speech or written tribute that is given in honor of someone who has passed away. It is an opportunity to remember and celebrate the life of the person, and to share stories and memories with others who knew and loved them.
As I stand here today, it is with a heavy heart that I deliver a eulogy for my mother, who passed away from cancer. My mother was a remarkable woman, full of love, grace, and strength. She was always there for me, no matter what, and her unwavering support and guidance have been a constant source of comfort and inspiration throughout my life.
My mother was a kind and compassionate person, who always put others before herself. She was a devoted wife, mother, and grandmother, and she cherished the relationships she had with her family and friends. She had a special talent for making everyone feel welcome and loved, and her warm and generous spirit touched the lives of so many people.
In the face of her illness, my mother remained brave and determined. She never complained or let her suffering get the best of her, and she remained positive and optimistic until the very end. She was an inspiration to all of us, and her strength and resilience will never be forgotten.
My mother was a shining light in my life, and her absence will be deeply felt. But I am grateful to have had the privilege of knowing and loving her, and I will always cherish the memories we shared. She may be gone, but her love and influence will continue to guide me throughout my life.
I love you, Mom, and I will miss you always. Rest in peace.
Eulogy For Sister Who Died Of Cancer
Thank you for coming and for joining my family in remembering my brother. But in the midst of her going through all this, she still had a beautiful heart! Technically, my mom is the most important person in my life. In fact, sometimes people are careful not to mention the deceased, for fear of causing pain to someone in mourning. I miss her soothing words, I miss her kind smile and her being good in every occasion. I will never let go of the belief that a day will come when we will all again be together. But she explained to me that now, more than ever, she needed me to be the strong one. And I am so happy that he met the love of his life, and that he and my Mom had such a wonderful marriage of 53 years — best friends - truly soul mates.
Writing a Eulogy for a Sister Who Died of Cancer
If the lawn needed to be mowed, he'd be up on a Saturday morning taking care of it. My mother was born in March 1906, the third youngest of 12 children. We later battled through a relocation to find her and me a new home that was better suited for her ongoing needs and care, to only then face breast cancer before getting into thyroid surgeries. We only mourn for those who have delighted us. If there was a party, you'd often find him on the balcony, in the backyard, or in a corner somewhere, people watching and smiling kindly at anyone who wandered near him. And thanks to those that joined the train at one time or another. I am so grateful to have had such an amazing mom, and I know that I will never be able to forget all of the wonderful things she taught me throughout my life.
Funeral
This train ride has been a mixture of joy, sorrow, fantasy, expectations, hellos, goodbyes, and farewells. His stop and his step down was so very unexpected for us — but he left so many great memories, and we are so grateful he stepped off on a high note! The Dodd family grave in the back of the church evokes pioneer history. Eulogies that are both respectful and lighthearted are the finest. Through wisdom known only to God, we were privileged to know her, and to have her in our lives for 69 years. Or middle of the night runs to the emergency room when one of my sisters or myself had an emergency and mom needed support.
