Eulogy: The word "eulogy" comes from a Greek word meaning, "to speak well of." Memories of the deceased can be shared in many ways. A formal Christian funeral service might include the pastor or a person chosen by the family reading a published obituary and then expanding on it with information gathered from family and friends. A more informal service could feature several people offering their memories of the person being remembered. A Christian funeral eulogy normally includes the ways in which the person acted out their faith in Christ.
