How to write a eulogy
Decide on the tone.
How serious or lighthearted do you want the eulogy to be? A good eulogy does not need to be uniformly somber, just appropriate. Some eulogy-writers take a serious approach, others are bold enough to add humor.
Used cautiously, humor can help convey the personality of the deceased and illustrate some of his or her endearing qualities. The tone can also be partially determined by the way the deceased passed away.
