Eulogy

There is something about a good shoe that woman cannot resist. I believe this trait is passed down to our littles girls in Utero. Most baby girls end up with a shoe collection much nicer than our own before they are even born. I was lucky enough to receive my first pair of Jady Baby's the day Miss Zoe was born, they actually arrived in the mail that day! I've written about Jady Baby's a few times now but I think this time feels so much more important because I've met the lady behind the brand…

To be honest, I have few memories of Mr. Cannarozzi. He was never my teacher, never someone I had grown close too. Still, the memory I have of our only interaction showed that he had a lasting and positive impact on everyone, even those he did not know. I remember running into Lenox, excited to get to Mrs. McCallum’s class. I had reached the very last step and went to grab the heavy, fire-resistant door, but had made the mistake of having my little foot to close. Next thing I knew, I was in…

Since its publication after World War II, William Golding’s Lord of the Flies has gained a great amount of attention and success. The story is about a group of British boys that are deserted on an island after a plane crash. As the story goes on, the boys are stripped of their civilized selves, which later brings conflict. The content of the book is chillingly realistic, disturbing and honest, both its human and literacy value remain meaningful. William creates an accurate imitation of human…

Jay has passed; I can only dream of becoming the man he was. We can all learn from the life of Jay Gatsby. Wealth is a wonderful thing however it does not guarantee love and happiness. I don't know if I am the right person to be delivering this eulogy as I have not known Jay for a long time. His life was such a blur to me, but his mysterious façade did not blind me of his countless attributes. His kindness, determination, and generosity were always evident whenever he was around. As I…

Eulogy As Leo Tolstoy once said, “If you want to be happy, be”. This was one of Raj’s favorite quotes because it explained the mindset he had towards life. Raj was the most positive, easy going, and enthusiastic person I knew. No matter what obstacles Raj was facing in life he always found a way to be happy and he didn’t let anything get him down because he believed that there was no point in being sad if happiness is always an option. Even during his crazy college years when he had tons of…

The Eulogy of Tessie Hutchinson I, Bill Hutchinson, am here with all of you today to embrace my memories of my wife, Tessie Hutchinson. For all of you who remember, Tessie was a mother of three children and a very loyal towns person. I just want to say that I think the lottery should be put to an end because it’s not fair anymore. We have lost many lives while doing this and other towns have stopped so I think it’s time for us to stop too. Tessie and I met in high school and we became high…

Princess Diana left the world in sorrow. Following her death, many public speeches and articles regarding this tragic event were released. Queen Elizabeth gave a televised speech, Earl Spencer gave a eulogy, the BBC broadcasted a report, and Wikipedia released an article. The BBC report and the eulogy were rhetorically effective, while Queen Elizabeth’s speech and the Wikipedia article were not. The broadcasted report released by the BBC was rhetorically effective because of the correct usage…
