Debating Funeral Eulogies
My co-workers and I often find unusual topics to debate during our lunch hour. These debates are so lively that we try to eat lunch as a group at least twice a week. The other day, we choose as our subject a funeral eulogy. Some in the group felt that a eulogy should be written by the speaker while others felt it was perfectly appropriate to start with a prepared speech. Many liked the idea of a funeral poem, but a few thought that was tacky. I can’t remember how we came up with this topic, but it was an interesting discussion and gave me a lot to think about.
