Writing a Eulogy Workshop with Keith Whelan
A eulogy or tribute can be a special part of a funeral, but where does one start with this important task? Join experienced presenter Keith Whelan for this free workshop.
A eulogy is a brief account of the milestones and achievements of a loved one’s life. But writing a eulogy can be daunting…
This workshop will assist with the task and raise questions such as:
• What were your loved one’s six most noteworthy characteristics?
• What did people love most about the person?
• What was your loved one’s feelings about death and a possible life beyond this one?
Eulogies can be written in many different ways depending on the person and the circumstances.
• They can be a delivered as a more formal speech which includes the person’s history, career and achievements.
• They can be more personal through the sharing stories, memories and anecdotes.
• Or, they can be a combination of these two styles.
This workshop will provide samples and written exercises to help you to write clear, concise and compelling memories.
