Eulogy Template: Word, Google Docs and Printable PDF
$6.99
A gentle, guided way to write a eulogy, for the person who has been asked to speak. Short prompts take you through each part, from who you are to them to the last line you will say, with room to write and a large-print copy to read from on the day.
Type it in Microsoft Word or Google Docs, or print it and write by hand. Use the prompts that help, skip the rest, then copy your finished words onto the reading copy.
