Eulogy to Mum of 5 children

[reed]

Hi all, have come across this website and found it so helpful and inspirational. Puts faith that there are many kind souls out there.

I am preparing an eulogy for my mothers death 2 weeks ago whilst she was abroad. She has had her problems with drink addiction but she always fought through it and fulfilled her dream of living abroad. She leaves behind 5 fantastic children and 5 beautiful grandchildren.

Just wondering what poems anyone know are nice to use. Also does anyone have any advice to give to avoid cracking up in the middle of the speech and how to structure the speech to keep it to 3 minutes and relevant.

Hope this makes sense. Am missing her incredibly but feel this is something that I really want to do for her. any help is truly appreciated

Thanks again
