Eulogy ideas for father-in-law

 

But, before we get into that, let me take a moment to express my deepest condolences to you and the entire family on the loss of this wonderful man.

 

Not sure if you are his son-in-law or daughter-in-law. But, I am sure your father-in-law impacted your life so much and I can’t imagine what you and your spouse are going through at this moment.

 

If you feeling so down and overwhelmed by his loss, Diana Blokzyi’s poem ‘’ Gone Away’’ can be a great source of comfort in this very difficult time.

Here it is:

An Angel whispered,
"Take my hand and
come with me;
your work here is done."

I went away to a place
where there's no tears nor sorrow,
only laughter and smiles.
There will always be a tomorrow.

As I move amongst the clouds.
I'll look down and smile upon you,
while the angels
sing a heavenly song.

I am not alone.
All who went before
are here;
they awaited my return.

I know you'll grieve
and wish I was still here.
I am here in the memories
you hold dear.

Remember how much I
love you,
and know I took your
love with me.

I did not wish for
you to cry nor feel sad.
My pain is gone and
I am free!

Soon you'll come to me.
Until then,
God will be with you
Just as He's with me.

 

Well, if you need someone to talk to, you can write to me here and I will send you some comforting verses.

 

How To Write A Touching Eulogy For Your Father-In-Law

 

Here’s what most folks do when asked to write a tribute. Out of frustration and ignorance, they scan through some examples online and make a few edits here and there and call it done. That helps to an extent if you don’t know where and how to start. 

 

In order to effectively express your ideas passionately and coherently, you should simply follow these steps.

 

Here they are:

 

  • Pick a tone for your eulogy
  • Decide on the ideal length of your eulogy
  • How and where to get stories for your tribute
  • Make the most of eulogy for father-in-law examples
  • Write your father-in-law tribute like a pro

 

This comes first….

 

Pick A Tone For Your Father-In-Law’s Eulogy

 

Your own writing style as well as your late father-in-law’s character and personality would ultimately influence the tone of your message.

 

For example, if your father-in-law was fun to be around, you can regale the mourners with funny memories about him.

 

If he had a very thoughtful personality, then, of course, you can make your script very touching and inspiring.

 

Again, if he was a very spiritual person, then subtle hints of that aspect of his life should be felt in his funeral speech.

 

You got it?

 

That brings us to the next step:

 

What Should Be The Ideal Length Of Your Father-In- Law’s Eulogy?

 

As a professional eulogy speech writer, I have heard and read both short and long tributes. Nonetheless, the decision to deliver something short or long depends on these factors:

  • The amount of time his family has asked you to speak
  • The number of speakers delivering eulogies

 

If none of that exists, then do what you are comfortable with but don’t go overboard with a very long eulogy that would bore the audience to death.

 

On the whole, make sure you honor his memory with the right words no matter how long or short your tribute is.

 

This comes next:

 

Where And How To Find The Right Anecdotes

 

Human beings have loved listening stories since ancient times. So, who said the weeping mourners wouldn’t want to hear great stories about the deceased?  

 

Now, this is how to remember the good old times if you don’t a fantastic memory or simply want to come up with the best stories for your father-in-law’s eulogy.

 

  • Speak to your significant other and ask probing questions about the dead man. Questions like…Babe, do you remember the first time I met your dad? One question can lead to the other and before you know it, you have tons of memories to choose from.
  • Flip through your photo album and look for pictures of him and ask yourself what each picture brings back to mind?
  • Watching a memorial slideshow about his life can also bring back very warm memories. So, go watch it if there’s one available. Here's a video example to remind you about your friendship with your father-in-law:

 

 

 

 

Action Tip: Have you put down memories about him yet? Do that now and you would thank me later.

 

Let’s now…look at

How To Make The Most Of Father-In-Law Tribute Samples And Examples

 

I would like to thank Jeannette of Healthy Living for posting this example on her website.

 

Now, here you go:

Father-In-Law Eulogy Example

 

Paul immigrated to the United States in 1951, where he received his Master’s degree in engineering from the University of Michigan and his PhD from Columbia University.

 

He was a devoted husband, and was married to my mother-in-law for 50 years before her passing 4 years ago. Not only was he an extremely intelligent man, but one of the dearest, most loving men I have ever known.

I first met Paul 30 years ago when I first started dating my husband. He reminded me so much of my maternal grandfather, so sweet, gentle, and humble, and always the perfect gentleman. In all the years I’ve known him, I cannot recall a single moment where he raised his voice or complained about anything. 

 

From the beginning when I met him, he took me in as his own daughter and made me feel part of his family without any thought. I can still remember him dancing up such a storm at my wedding that I was scared he might have a heart attack (obviously, he had a lot more stamina than I realized!!).

 

My father-in-law (and mother-in-law) moved in with my family 8 years ago, following a hospitalization after which we realized he could no longer live on his own. Paul had Parkinson’s disease, a degenerative disease of the central nervous system, that can be slowed down with medication, but not stopped.

 

At the time my in-laws moved in with my family, I was completely overwhelmed as I had just given birth to my youngest son, with 7-year old twins and a 9-year old son. Selfishly, I wanted time to just be with my family, as I had finally made the decision to stay home with my children after 15 years in the financial services industry. 

 

Although there were definitely many tense and trying periods over the past 8 years as I adjusted to the additional responsibilities of taking care of my husband’s aging parents and the shift in family dynamics, I can say without any regret now that the past 8 years have been a treasured time in my life, my husband’s life, and my children’s lives.

 

My mother-in-law passed away over 4 years ago, and we were so fortunate to have my father-in-law for another 4 years. 


As a mother of 4 boys, ages 8 to 18, my father-in-law has touched each of their lives in ways that can not be expressed with words. Through his living example, he has taught them what it means to be a man of humility, honor, grace and faith.

 

We have so many wonderful memories with him that we will treasure for the years to come, all of them happy and joyful. Not only has he been an amazing father to my husband, but also an incredible role model to my sons.

With my father-in-law’s Parkinson’s Disease progressing over the years and his health failing, it has been difficult to watch. However, it has also brought our family closer together, and my boys will have beautiful memories of their grandfather for the rest of their lives.

 

Father-in-law eulogy examples

 

I have been able to witness my dear sweet husband in another light, as a devoted, faithful and loving son to whom his father is his biggest hero. In fact, two years ago, he wrote a beautiful blog post dedicated to his dad, An Ode To Dad, long before I even knew what a blog was. 

 

My four sweet boys have grown up with a super star model grandfather, living a life of humility, faith and love, and are blessed to have a father, as my husband did, who has followed in his father’s footsteps. We will miss my father-in-law dearly, but I am confident that his legacy will live on in my husband, my sons, and future generations.


We have been so blessed to have my dear sister-in-law and brother-in-law who have been able to provide medical advice and hands on care whenever needed (an incredibly good reason to have a doctor in your family). 

 

 

We have also shared many special moments with my two nieces, especially during my mother-in-law and father-in-law’s illnesses, which have brought our families closer.

 

Although the circumstances under which our children drew closer might not seem ideal, the bond they have developed as a result of these shared experiences is inseparable.

 

And what about me? Although in some ways I feel like my life has been on hold for a while, I have learned to be more patient, to take one day at a time, and to be more compassionate. 

 

I have grown to understand that the past 8 years have not been a burden at all; in fact, it has been a true blessing for all of us. Yes, the past several months have been chaotic, stressful and exhausting; however, as I think about what it will be like next week when my husband returns to work, the kids are back in school, and I am left alone at home, I’m not sure how I will feel. The house will be so quiet, too quiet.

Although this is an incredibly difficult time for my family and a tough post to write, I feel it is so important for me to share what I have learned for those of you who might find yourself in a similar situation or know of someone who is, and I hope you will pass this along.



As my father-in-law’s Parkinson’s Disease progressed over the years, we had to adjust the foods that he was able to eat. Parkinson’s can affect a person’s ability to chew and swallow.

 

As a result, as his Parkinson’s Disease started to affect his ability to chew and swallow, my father-in-law’s wonderful caregiver and I experimented with foods that he was able to enjoy and kept him healthy.



Here are some of the foods we prepared for my father-in-law as his chewing and swallowing became increasingly challenging. These are foods that can be enjoyed by anyone on a soft food diet.

  • Egg White Quiches
  • Stir-Fry Tofu
  • Steamed Fish with Tofu
  • Yogurt
  • Pudding
  • Rice Pudding
  • Tapioca Pudding
  • Chocolate Tofu Pudding
  • Mung Bean Tapioca Pudding
  • Applesauce
  • Mashed Sweet Potatoes
  • Mashed Potatoes
  • Jamaican Plantain Porridge
  • Jamaican Corn Porridge
  • Chinese Congee
  • Oatmeal (ground up oatmeal made into porridge)
  • Graham crackers or other whole grain crackers  soaked in milk
  • Pumpkin, Banana or Corn Bread/Muffins mixed with low-fat milk into a porridge consistency
  • Pancakes soaked in low-fat milk 
  • Soft Scrambled Eggs, blended smooth
  • Chinese Steamed Eggs
  • Pureed Soups
  • Fruit Sorbets (see below for recipe)
  • Ice crushed in a blender into fine piece

 

 

Now, let’s figure out how the entire sample was written.

 

To make things fairly easy, you should first divide the above example into these parts:

  • Introduction
  • Body or Content Outline
  • Conclusion or ending

 

The introduction has two main components:

  • Greetings and expression of gratitude
  • The hook

 

Let’s get into the first part: Greetings and expression of gratitude

  • Greetings (Here’s an example)

Thank you so much for coming from far and near as we mourn the loss and celebrate the life of my beloved father-in-law, Jack Michaels, who was our family’s guiding light.

  • Self-Introduction (Here’s another example)

For those of you who might know me, my name is Angelina, Mark’s daughter-in-law for the last 25 years!

 

 

  • Expression of gratitude

 

Start by thanking the deceased’s family for asking you to speak.

Next, thank other personalities who have been a tremendous blessing in your father-in-law’s life. The gratitude list may include the following persons:  

  • The surviving spouse
  • His children
  • Doctors and medical staff for their assistance

 

Here’s my homework assignment: Jot down the names of individuals you  would like to say thank you to and add why they deserve your words of gratitude.

 

The hook comes next. Its purpose is to Now, capture the attention of the mourners from the get go. Here are some simple ways to start on a strong note. 

 

First, start on a funny note. Here’s how a grieving son-in-law began his tribute.

Today, we are gathered here to mourn the passing of a great man who was like a second father to me. Most of you used to call him Peter The Rock. But, I used to call him Mr. Watermelon and there’s a nice little story about that which I would tell you about later on in my speech!

 

What, do you think made that short example hilarious? His Nickname!

Did he have one? Share it! Did he like to tease you? Share it and your family will thank you for giving them something to smile about on such a sad day.  

 

Why not sound a little more thoughtful by using witty lines and quotes? Just imagine how impactful your opening lines would be if you start off with any of these eulogy quotes. Please take note of the underlined words and phrases.

 

  • “Grief is like the ocean; it comes on waves ebbing and flowing. Sometimes the water is calm, and sometimes it is overwhelming. All we can do is learn to swim.”- Vicky Harrison
  • “The greatest gift I ever had came from God, I call him Dad.”- Unknown
  • "Let me tell you, he is the hole in my heart. His loss is my scar. But let me tell you something, his memory drives me forward every single day of my life."-Michelle Obama
  • “No matter how old we are, we still need our dads, and wonder how we’ll get by without them.”- Jennifer Williamson
  • “Whenever I am missing you, I also remember how fortunate I was that you were in my life. I wouldn’t trade those moments for the world.”- Cindy Adkins

 

Now, I am going to use the bolded text to write a short tribute for a beloved father-in-law.

 

God has been gracious to me and given me great gifts my whole life and that’s something I am eternally thankful for. But, Dean was the greatest gift of my life and we forged such a strong friendship that most people thought he was my real dad. His passionate love made me feel like he was my flesh and bone.

 

Now, he is gone and his loss is a deep scar in my heart. But, I also remember how fortunate I was that he was in my life and his memory drives me forward every single day of my life.

 

Did you notice how I fused those bolded words into the speech? That’s exactly how it is done.

 

Again, you can start with a touching poem or the favorite saying of the deceased.

 

What should i say at father-in-law's eulogy

 

Now, let us look at this…

 

How To Write The Content Of Your Father-In-Law’s Eulogy

 

Writing the body of your father-in-law’s eulogy is certainly not an easy task because it can quite frustrating to distill years of memories into a very short tribute speech when you are asked to make your eulogy succinct.

 

Here’s what I think it’s a perfect way of wrapping your head around this simple yet profound exercise. So grab your pen and sheet of paper and note pad and write down answers to the following questions.

 

  • Do you remember how you felt when you first met your father-in-law? Write down that memory.
  • How did he welcome you into his family and make you feel a part of it?
  • What were your shared passions and interests?
  • What was his influence on you and your whole family?
  • Did you make many memories together? Do you recall any of them?
  • What were his personal attributes or character traits? Write at least two or three of them and back them up with a few anecdotes.

 

Got a few ideas on paper? Ok. Good. The trick here is to try to cobble your responses together into a rough draft which you can always go back to polish up. And have you done that with the answers to those questions?

 

Don’t belittle yourself because you can! Just start with the ideas on this page. 

 

Finally, let’s look at the conclusion.

The conclusion can take one or more of these several forms.

First, thank everyone for coming to comfort the family.

 

Second, conclude by sharing how you will always remember him. This example can be a source of inspiration.

 

‘’ I never realized that day that I would never get to have another phone conversation with David, or that it was the last time I would tell him goodbye, but it was. David knew that life was short, and that’s why he took the time to celebrate life, spending every minute that he could with people that he loved. He was a wonderful man with a gentle spirit, and he will be missed. ‘’

 

Third, you can end with a song he used to sing if it’s somewhat related to your tribute. I did this once at my grandmas’ funeral and everyone loved it.

 

Were you by your father-in-law’s side when he died? What were his last words? For example, if he told you to take care of his wife. Then, you can render those words like this:

 

Mom, Dean carried your love with him to the grave. Before he passed he said to me, Martha, can you do me a quick favor?

He used to tell me that and I thought he was going to make fun of me. Instead, he said, Martha, I will be counting on you to stand by my wife until she joins me and before I knew it he was gone. Mom, I will do just as dad said. I promise.

Eulogy For Father-In-Law...Now, Let The Pros Help You With Your Eulogy Speech So You Can Relax And Have Your Peace of Mind

 

Dear Loving  Son-In-Law Or Daughter-In-Law,

I am Eric

Let’s face it…Life can sometimes be so unfair...After losing several members of my family within a few years, I lost my father-in-law too. We were best friends and he was more like a father to me. 

He was my world and everything to me. With his departure, I wondered how my life was going to be like without him by my side.

I began to grieve for months until I realized that her funeral service was around the corner. It was then that I began to panic because I had to deliver a tribute and I didn't know what to say. Let alone begin one.

Looking for help everwhere, I frantically landed on this page you are currently reading and it made all the difference. 

This Helped Me Out!

Initially, I was skeptical when Dan and his team said they could help give a great speech even if I hated speaking in public or short on time.

Well, I remember the old age nothing ventured, nothing gained. So, I took a leap of faith when I found that I didn’t have to pay first to get my speech and that allayed my fears. I thought I had nothing to lose after all.

Quickly, I got started by first filling out this form. Dan and his team delivered as promised. 

Below is the note I sent to Dan after he'd transmitted my speech. (Please you can double click on the image if you can't see it clearly)

Eulogy for father-in-law shutterfly

                            image courtesy: www.shutterfly.com

Well, I think you will agree with me when I say that your father-in-law is one of the greatest men in your life.

 

He probably raised your spouse so well and he will forever be in your debt for allowing you to marry his son or daughter.

 

By the way, it’s very heartbreaking that he’s no more. Let me take this moment to express my deepest condolences to you and your family on the passing of your wonderful father-in-law. I am sure you’ve lost a great man.

 

I am sure you will forever miss him considering the fact that he made a bright difference in your life and the people around you.

 

 

I am pretty confident you are on this page because you’re looking for the right words to say something touching at your father-in-law’s funeral.

 

 

Don’t Let This Stop You From Giving A Touching Eulogy For Your Father-In-Law

Before we get into the heart of the matter, let’s look at one thing that gives most speakers sleepless nights and how you can take advantage of that so you can speak with poise, flair, and confidence.

 

You see, at some point in time, you probably might have failed to live up to expectation when you were asked to speak before an audience.

 

As you get all set for this new task, your mind will relay mental pictures of those horrible experiences and it may make you have feelings of inadequacy about what to say at your father-in-law’s funeral.

 

But, you don’t have to give up because there’s hope. The mourners won’t be judging you, or even expecting a flawless delivery from you.

 

But, here is the thing. You can’t let your own family and in-laws down with just anything. You need to do this right when you are given the opportunity to speak about him. 

 

If you find yourself in a tight spot, all you have to do is to believe in yourself and continuously hold this mental picture of yourself speaking confidently and you will be empowered from within.

 

That, in essence, is one of the best ways to regaining your composure and boosting your self-confidence.

 

That said, let’s now consider…

Let’s look at this….

A Eulogy Sample For A Father-In-Law:…

 

Can we read through this together? Ok, let’s get straight into it.

 

Eulogy 1

 

Thank you all for coming together to celebrate George’s life.

George or “papa” was a man of many words. Many, many humorous, often sarcastic words tinged with life, love and affection. “Walter”, George’s grumpy and humorous alter-ego, was never afraid to vocalize his opinions to those around him whether he knew the person or not.

 

 

He loved to bust your chops and have fun with you. That is one of many, many reasons I love that man.

 

 

I first met George about 11 years ago when I started dating his daughter, Jane. We had been together for a few weeks when she invited me over to her parent's house for dinner at that big beautiful home they had on a street.

 

Because impressions are important, I asked Jane what I could bring or what their parents liked. I showed up at the house with a few cans of black olives - as a joke, but more because mom loved them. I got to the house just before George got home from work.

As I’m sitting in the kitchen with Jane and Mike and getting to know “mom” or St. Anne as I would come to think of her, in walks this tall, imposing, formidable gentleman.

 

The expression he wore on his face scared the daylights out of me. I do not recall the exact words, but it went something along the lines of “So, you’re dating my daughter, huh? You gonna marry her?”

Well, like a puppy with a tail between its legs, I ran off and did what I was told. I took to dad like butter does to toast. I loved him right off. He just had this spark about him.

 

No matter what kind of day you had, he’d find a way to put a smile on your face and make you laugh. He’d drop anything to help you out at any time and for however long.

 

He loved to stop by the house after his morning coffee with his good friends to see how his little grandkids were doing and to take his “buddy” Mike (grandson) out to work in the yard, or down to camp, or to go fishing, or to run errands. He and Mike were two peas in a pod.

 

They loved spending time together, usually working on some sort of project. Even as sick as he would become, he always found the time to stop by to say hi and have a chat.

  

One of his favorite things in recent years was to watch Mike play football. He would come to nearly every practice and game he could to cheer his grandson on. He became known as “Mr. George” or “grandpa” around the football field. The parents and the staff loved him. He had an uncanny ability to strike up a conversation with anyone.

 

One thing he loved to do at home games is to be on the “chain gang” where one would hold the down markers and flags. This was a front-row seat for him. The “chain gang” was always done on the opposing team's side of the field.

 

I always felt bad for the other team because aside from lacking any sort of filter, he could armchair quarterback like no one else. He very much missed doing the chain gang this past year, but he stuck it out and came to nearly every game.

 

We all felt awful when he couldn’t handle that last championship game on that chilly fall day late last year. Bless that man.

George was always up to some kind of project and he always seemed to “know a guy” that could get anything or do anything.

 

Judging by the capacity of this room, he knew a lot of guys. One thing I know for sure, he is loved by many. Through that imposing, stubborn facade was a loving, caring, selfless man. He’d never miss an opportunity to flirt with the girls or joke with the boys.

  

He loved his family and friends greatly. He doted on his beautiful, loving bride, Anne, his wonderful children, and grandkids like no man ever does. Truly a man's man, a family man, and someone I truly look up to. I’ll be sure to carry on your legacy and never forget what a truly great man and great human you are.

  

If you’re watching dad, I’m ready for my fat lip. We will all miss you greatly and will forever live on in our hearts and minds. I love you, dad.

 

While George is physically gone from our lives and we seek answers as to “why him?” Know that he is never gone. Know that all of George's energy that was known to us in his human form exists now in other forms.

 

He is here with us all, here with us in the memories we have made of him, here with us in the friendships he’s forged, here with us in the children, grandchildren, and families he’s helped to create, here with us now as we all are, together as one.

 

While we mourn this terrible loss, let us never forget those whom we all have lost over the years by cherishing the life they had with us.

 

Be good to one another, forgive one another. What we have here right now is precious. Don’t take a single day for granted. Live like George, or else he’d threaten you with a fat lip.

 

Thank you all for coming to celebrate George’s life.

I’ll leave you today with this quote from author Terry Pratchett: “No one is actually dead until the ripples they cause in the world die away”

 

Let us keep these ripples moving now and with future generations to come.

 

 

That’s it. Now, like I said let’s break it down and see what really went into writing it.

Here’s a recap of the introduction

‘’ Thank you all for coming together to celebrate George’s life…‘’

 

The opening lines of any eulogy speech should capture attention but this piece didn’t work so well. It commenced with a few words of gratitude.  

 

 

By the way, acknowledging the mourners isn’t the only way to capture hearts, there are other proven ways as well and they include:

 

1) Citing a question, poem or song lyrics to begin your your eulogy. Just imagine how moving your tribute will be if you start with this poem by Henry Scott Holland.

Death is nothing at all,
I have only slipped into the next room
I am I and you are you
Whatever we were to each other, that we are still.
Call me by my old familiar name,
Speak to me in the easy way which you always used
Put no difference in your tone,
Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow
Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes we enjoyed together.
Play, smile, think of me, pray for me.
Let my name be ever the household word that it always was,
Let it be spoken without effect, without the trace of shadow on it.
Life means all that it ever meant.
It is the same as it ever was, there is unbroken continuity.
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
I am waiting for you, for an interval, somewhere very near,
Just around the corner.
All is well.

 

2) Relating an anecdote or story….For example, you can simply start by telling everyone how you first met him and your impressions….

 

Here's a short but funny father-in-law eulogy speech example:

 

Before I met Jack 30 years ago, Stacy told me that her dad was a very strict person but I was hell-bent on meeting him and leaving a favorable impression on him since I was once under the roof of one the strictest dads in the world…Well, I eventually met him 2 months after I met Stacy and he gave me this stern look that I almost peed in my pants. Then, in his booming voice, he said…

 

Eulogy 2

 

Did you notice how I blended in that story skillfully? That’s how it’s done.

 

3) Making a simple statement of fact….

 

Let’s now move on to the body. Once again, let’s look at excerpts of this speech.

 

‘’I first met George about 11 years ago when I started dating his daughter, Jane. We had been together for a few weeks when she invited me over to her parents’ house for dinner at that big beautiful home they had on a street.’’

 

The body of the eulogy is a narration of your relationship with your father-in-law and it’s the most crucial part of your tribute. 

Through the power of examples and stories, you can bring to the fore what your friendship with him has been like over the years.

 

To give you an idea of how to do that, just go for a note pad or paper and pen and put down answers to the following questions:

 

  • How you did first met him?
  • What impressions did you seek to create when you first met him?
  • What was your first encounter like?
  • How did your friendship evolve from there?
  • Do you share similar interests or passions?
  • How did he inspire you every step of the way?
  • How did he impact your life when you got married to your spouse?
  • What lessons did he teach you or impart?
  • How did he support your own family and others?
  • Why and how will you miss him?

 

I hope you’ve put down your answers. Now, go back to read the example above in its entirety and see if you can model your responses after it.

 

This is what you should know as you do that or come up with your first draft. You’ll realize that your first write-up might not sound too good, but don’t let it put a dampener on things.

 

            Eulogy for a very wonderful  father in law

                                             image courtesy: www.quoteambition.com

 

If you have time to spare, you can shelve it for a little longer and go back to clean it up. This is what I recommend you do if you have a very short time for his or celebration of life service. Otherwise, you should keep editing it until it sounds great. 

 

Finally, let’s look at how to end on an impactful note.

 

Before we do, here is a summary of the closing lines to help us make sense of how to write your closing remarks.

 

‘’  While we mourn this terrible loss, let us never forget those whom we all have lost over the years by cherishing the life they had with us…Thank you all for coming to celebrate George’s life. I’ll leave you today with this quote from author Terry Pratchett: “No one is actually dead until the ripples they cause in the world die away. Let us keep these ripples moving now and with future generations to come.‘’

 

Well, I smiled when I read those lines and it perfectly sums up what I want to say. I believe those lines will remain in the minds of the mourners for a very long time. How about you? How about you?

 

By the way, you simply can’t take the closing remarks for granted because that’s the part that will not only stay with your friends and family for a long time but also highlight you close you were to your father-in-law.   

 

There are also time-tested approaches to coming up with one besides the short extract we just looked at. So,  so I hope you don’t mind if I show you how to end your eulogy for your father-in-law with just a few of them.

 

Ok…Here they are:

 

First, you can tap into the emotions of your listeners by recalling the memories of friends and family they have lost over the years. 

 

 

An example is shown here: While we mourn this terrible loss, let us never forget those whom we all have lost over the years by cherishing the life they had with us.

 

Don’t you think people will resonate with this speaker? You know why? He’s reminding them of their loved ones who have gone ahead of them and they are sure to see him as a more empathetic person!

 

Second, you can thank those who came to support you….It’s illustrated here ’’ Thank you all for coming to celebrate George’s life.’’

 

Third, you can encourage people to emulate your father-in-law’s fine attributes or admonish people to set examples in word and deeds.

 

‘’Be good to one another, forgive one another. What we have here right now is precious. Don’t take a single day for granted. Live like George, or else he’d threaten you with a fat lip. ‘’

 

Fourth,  you can thank God for his mercies and blessing…An example would be: We thank and praise God for blessing us with George. What a blessed example he was to his world!

 

Fifth, you can recount stuff you used to do together and say that he will be sorely missed when it comes to that. This is a classic example:

Whenever I hit the road, I will miss John because we used to travel frequently across the country. I will miss him because we were great pals.
