How to Write Your Own Eulogy

How to Write Your Own Eulogy

This beautiful essay by Rabbi Evan Moffic is inspired by his own experiences in delivering eulogies and comforting mourners. "Nothing can totally prepare you for the task of comforting mourners and making sense of death. And nothing better teaches us what makes for a meaningful and well-lived life." He quotes "a saying of the Jewish sages: 'The Righteous, even when they die, are called living.' In other words, the righteous live on in the inspiration and loved ones they leave behind."
