From a eulogy for a grandmother
My grandmother kept a coffee can of buttons on the shelf above her sewing machine. None of them matched. When I asked her why she saved them, she said, "Because one day somebody's going to lose one, and I'll have it."
That was Nana. She spent eighty-six years being ready for the rest of us.
You share the memories
No writing skills needed. Jot things down the way you'd tell a friend: the Sunday pancakes, the terrible jokes, the way they always showed up.
We find the shape
An opening, the stories that matter, and a closing that gives the room somewhere to land. Written for the ear, so it's easy to say out loud.
You make it yours
Preview the opening before paying. Then edit any word, ask for it shorter or funnier, and print it in large type for the podium.

You don't have to write it alone
Most people asked to give a eulogy have never written one, and they have a few days at most. Start with what you remember. That's always enough.
