Book excerpt: Few things in life are as challenging as crafting a written expression of grief--whether it is a eulogy or a simple sympathy note. Many of us fear saying the wrong thing, and so we say nothing at all. Yet, there may be no better way to comfort the grieving or hold out the hope for our own and others' healing. With the expert guidance and sample writing offered here, anyone can put his or her thoughts in order to create a moving tribute to the deceased. Whether for the loss of a spouse, parent, or sibling, or even in the devastating wake of a suicide or a child's death, the many examples provided will help you prepare an eloquent eulogy, obituary, or letter of condolence. Also included are suggestions for writing for the loss of a pet, which is an often overlooked, but very real source of grief.
