Frequently Asked Questions
How do I write a eulogy for my mother?
Start by gathering memories – childhood moments, lessons she taught you, her quirks and traditions. Focus on what made her unique. Include specific stories that capture her personality, and speak about her impact on your life and others.
How long should a eulogy be?
Most eulogies are 5-10 minutes (700-1400 words). This allows time to share meaningful stories without exhausting grieving listeners. If multiple people are speaking, keep yours on the shorter end.
What if I'm too emotional to deliver the eulogy?
It's okay to show emotion. Have someone ready to step in if needed. Practice helps – the more you read it, the more manageable the emotion becomes. You can also have someone else deliver it while you wrote it.
Should a eulogy be sad or celebratory?
Eulogies work best when they celebrate a life while acknowledging the loss. It's okay to include light moments and humor if that fits your mother's personality. The goal is to paint a picture of who she was.
What should I not say in a eulogy?
Avoid unresolved conflicts, controversial opinions, or anything that might embarrass other mourners. This isn't the time to air grievances. Focus on the positive legacy and shared memories that bring comfort.
How does the AI speech generator work?
Our AI uses the personal details and stories you provide to craft a unique, personalized speech. Simply answer a few questions about your relationship, share meaningful memories, and choose your preferred tone and length. The AI then generates 3 different draft variations for you to choose from and customize.
Can I edit the generated speech?
Absolutely! The generated drafts are starting points. You can edit every word, add your own touches, and refine until it sounds exactly like you. We recommend using the AI as a foundation and then personalizing it with specific details only you would know.
How long should my speech be?
Most speeches work best at 3-5 minutes (around 400-600 words). This gives you enough time to share meaningful content without losing your audience's attention. Our generator lets you choose between short (2-3 min), medium (4-5 min), and long (6-7 min) options.
