Eulogy

Love, passion, hardship, dedication, reliability: these are all traits that my dad not only held, but showed everyday. Many of you may have known Willy Loman for a man of character and passion, but I knew him as what everyone in my family did, a caring and loving individual. There were many days where I could say that I hated my dad for what he said to me, but recollecting on those past times I can say that it has ultimately made me into a better person and the man I am today. I like to think…

Shakily, I breathe in. Retreating from the room where voices are hurled at one another like bullets, I find solace in the kingdom of clothes. The clothing dryer hums and heaves, radiating heat. I like it here, even if it is not far enough to drown out the sound of a war waged only by spoken word. As I tiptoe further into the room, something outside crashes to the floor, shattering—I am used to broken things: toys, crayons, vases, marriages. The dryer beeps, indicating the end of a cycle and the…

A man who is too afraid to die, is a man who is too afraid to live and Dad certainly lived his life to the extremes. There is no lie that Shane Schofield was a fearless and valiant Lieutenant in the US Marines, but Dad also held the kind, tender qualities of a great gentleman. As his adopted daughter, I can say that he was the true light of my life, the loving and supportive parental figure I never had through my teen years into adulthood. I’m sure you can all agree with me when I say my Dad was…

Splat! The pie made as it hit the ground. My Grandma had made a blueberry pie that was the best around. It really was because she had put it in the best pie competition at the county fair. The pie had won first place and Grandma won one hundred dollars. No one knows how she makes her pies so deluxe, but Grandma is going to tell someone in my family the secret ingredient because she’s on her last legs. One thing I wished she had done was open a pie bakery, but she told me she was not in it for…

Friends and families who are gathered here, we are here to celebrate the life of Augustus who sadly passed away due to cancer. I am delivering this eulogy as I’ve known him for a long time. I also would like to welcome, Hazel, who was Augustus’s girlfriend. Augustus left us a bit early but instead of mourning about his disappearance, we should celebrate the life of Augustus. He was my best friend, he was there whenever I needed help. He cares about others more than himself and would rather see…

has become ‘a gentleman on whom [Duncan] built/ An absolute trust’. Clearly this is a great pat on the back for Macbeth, that such an honorable person trusts him and is infinitely grateful- ‘more is thy due than more than all can pay’. However, this eulogy is…

I tried on several occasions to write a eulogy for my mother. If I had made the effort by hand, all that you would have seen would have been an enormous pile of paper balls tossed in and around the trash basket. I simply could not come up with the right words for the occasion. My thoughts and feelings about her passing were just too difficult to express publicly. Of course, I could relate any number of events in my life that were touched by my mother. I know that each of you who have also…
