I wrote the eulogy for my Brother last year but didn't read it out.
The vicar read out my words which made me so proud that I had contributed.
I did a speech at the "celebration" of his life after the funeral. We sung OTBC and Wonderwall and was really special. We gave him the send off he deserved.
I hope everything goes well for you. I know your speech will be brilliant.
Xx
