OMG! Had a practice at reading my Dad's eulogy today in front of my mum and it was so emotional. I have no idea how I am going to get through this at his funeral.
My brother is saying a bit and then my nephew (on behalf of all the grandchildren and great grandchildren). Then as I promised Dad I will conclude with some final words and a poem he chose and a poem I choose. We both found comfort reading and debating about poetry together in his final years.
Both poems are short but powerful. I can read the rest OK (including the boys' sections) but the poems really hit hard.
If I can deliver them well they are poignant but uplifting but if I am sobbing it will be such a mess. Please send all the positive vibes you can. I need them on Tuesday.
