There are words we are never ready to say.
Today, one of them is "goodbye."
We say goodbye to Mom – the person who started it all.
Our lives. Our first steps. Our first words. Our sense of security.
Mom was our first home.
Her arms were a place where every fear vanished. Her voice – the calmest melody of childhood. She taught us the world. She showed us how to get up when we fell. How to trust. How to love.
She wasn't perfect—she was real. Tired, busy, sometimes worried. But always present. Always ready to give us everything she had—time, strength, heart.
Today we look back and see the thousands of small gestures that built our lives. Warm breakfasts in the morning. Hands adjusting the duvet at night. Conversations at the table. The quiet "take care of yourself," which sounded like the most important protective spell.
My mother possessed an extraordinary strength. We may not always have noticed it, but she was like the root of a tree—invisible, yet sustaining everything. Thanks to her, we stand here today as the people we are.
The hardest thing about saying goodbye is that we can no longer say "thank you" the way we would like.
For your patience.
For unconditional love.
For forgiveness.
For believing in us – even when we doubted ourselves.
Mom…
Your love doesn't end today. It lives on in us. In our words, in our choices, in the way we hug our children. In the care we give to others.
You left light in our hearts.
And although there is great pain in them today, this light will not go out.
We will find you in everyday moments. In the scent of your favorite dishes. In the sound of a song you hummed. In the tenderness you taught us to give.
Thank you, Mom, for life.
For the love that was the foundation of everything.
For always being able to come back – and knowing that someone was waiting.
Today we let you go with love.
Not with despair – although it hurts.
But with gratitude that we could be Your children.
See you soon, Mom.
You will be with us – always.

A eulogy is a personal speech delivered during a funeral ceremony—whether secular or religious—that serves to commemorate the life and personality of the deceased. It serves as a form of farewell, but also as a moment of shared mourning for family and loved ones.

Often, a short but concise speech works best. Too long a text can "dampen" the dynamic of the ceremony, while too short a text may fail to convey the importance of the relationship. Therefore, I often prepare two versions: a shorter one and a standard one.
Yes. Reading is often the best and safest option. The key is text layout, font, spacing, and clear pauses – so you get a version ready for stress reading.
