Funeral speech at a funeral text - farewell words spoken in memory of the deceased by his family and friends. They are pronounced over the grave of the buried with all their hearts. The speaker talks about important and significant events associated with this person, his achievements, and also speaks on the good side about the character and personality of the deceased. It is advisable if he says this orally, and not reads it from a piece of paper.

Funeral speech

Quite a lot of people attend funerals and wakes. Mostly these are relatives and friends of the deceased, but there are others - colleagues, acquaintances, school friends and others. As a rule, speak first funeral words provided to the head of the family or the eldest and to a loved one. If he is in a strong emotional state, then others present can speak at the wake.

Funeral speech example:

"My grandmother was wonderful person with a difficult but interesting fate. She, along with her three younger brothers and sister, were raised by her mother alone during the difficult post-war years. To say that they lived poorly then would be an understatement. She had to endure many difficulties and hardships, but she never lost her optimism and presence of mind, constantly helping her mother and taking care of the younger members of the family. And later, having married her military grandfather, she steadfastly endured all the hardships of service. In any circumstances, she always maintained exemplary order at home and taught all family members to do so. Grandma was sometimes strict, but fair. I am glad that I managed to learn from her neatness and order, the ability to organize my life. And her famous apple pies were simply incomparable, no one else could do them! I will always remember you, my dear, beloved grandmother! Your warmth, love and care will remain with us forever.”

If others don’t know you well, then at the beginning of your speech you should introduce yourself and explain under what circumstances you met the deceased. The funeral speech should contain words of gratitude towards the deceased and reflect his positive qualities. You can mention any significant moment that occurred with the participation of the deceased.

Funeral words for 40 days:

“I’ll introduce myself for those who don’t know me: my name is (name). We have worked together with (name of deceased) for the past few years and I would like to say a few words in memory of him. He was a true professional in his field, a Specialist with a capital S. Many of our colleagues, young and not only, learned the basics of their craft from him and often used his advice and help. He was very patient and responsive, he could always listen to everyone who turned to him for support, advise something, help out, and never refused anyone’s requests. He could perfectly lift the spirits of anyone who was upset, confused or depressed about something. The countless stories he tells funny stories, toasts, jokes and anecdotes could amuse anyone. We will all greatly miss him at our dinner gatherings and corporate events, where he invariably shone at the table, lifting our morale. There is no other person like him in our team. And maybe it won’t be in my memory anymore. We will all miss him greatly. Until the end of his life, he will remain in my memory and the memory of all our colleagues as an example of perseverance, sparkling cheerfulness, activity and professionalism! Rest in peace, dear colleague!”

It is advisable if you prepare the words for the wake in advance and memorize them. Because a well-formulated text will sound good and be perceived by others. And sluggish, boring speech with hesitations can be regarded as disrespect for the deceased and his family. If you are afraid that you will forget the words, you can take a piece of paper with you with a sample funeral speech. You need to pronounce words clearly and slowly. You need to speak confidently and so that others can hear you, but not too loudly.

Funeral poems

In addition to the funeral speech, condolences can be expressed in poetry or toasts. These options are more suitable for a wake than for the funeral itself. For example, memorial poems are read on the anniversary of death. They can be written with your own hand or taken ready-made. If you do not have the opportunity to personally attend the wake, you can express your condolences by posting memorial poems in the newspaper.

***
Two tears fell into the flowers,
Two big, pink roses!
From my tormented soul
Hopeless tears rolled out!
They see my wet eyes
Something they don't believe in at all
What you can never change
What is measured with pain and tears!
My heart beats stubbornly
And desperately doesn't want to know
That you can no longer see your beloved eyes,
And you can no longer hug your dear ones!!!

***
You have always been an example to us,
As a person with a pure soul.
And the memory of you is alive
In the hearts and souls of your loved ones.

***
People close to us are leaving.
Do not realize that - forever,
Do not exhaust all the pain of separation,
And he hits backhand - never.

We won't see them, we won't hear them,
We won't ask, we won't talk,
Although, as before, we breathe them,
We love them, we wait for them, we adore them.

Ridiculous, strange, impossible,
That dawn has come again,
Call, scream or cry heart-rendingly,
And there are no more loved ones nearby.

***
We cannot understand or comprehend
Can't survive, can't overcome,
That the chariot of life circles,
As it was before, exactly the same.

The sun is shining and the air is so fresh,
What days it is, but it’s very sad.
Gone is the beautiful hope from hopes
And again my heart is sad and empty.
There has been silence in the apartment for six months now,
Everything there is yours and it’s hard to believe in it.
I would drink the cup of grief to the dregs,
But it still cannot be measured.
I really want to come to you again,
Kiss and just be with you.
With hope to resist in the fight,
Argue with illness and disease.
The further you go, the more immeasurable the depth
The abyss that has come between us
Like you now, like in childhood, I need you,
But it is impossible to beg with tears.
I'm strong, you know I can do it
After all, you and I have been through so much.
I am forever in your debt,
You are an eternal piece in my world.
I'll bring you flowers and stand
And the heart will touch with its wound.
And you will feel how much I love you
My beloved, only mother.

***
Memorial verses for 1 year:
You died too early
Words cannot express our pain.
Sleep, dear, you are our pain and wound,
The memory of you is always alive.

***
We come here
To put flowers,
It’s very difficult, dear,
We can live without you.

***
The Great Tribulation cannot be measured,
Tears won't help my grief.
You are not with us, but forever
You will not die in our hearts.

***
Where do all the dreams go?
And why don't they return?
How we experience pain
After all, they were happy once.
Like waking up every day
Understand that this is all reality,
How painful it is to remember that day
When everything in life changed.

***
My soul is worried without you,
You don't need girlfriends or friends.
Why is it possible without millions?
Why is it impossible without one?

***
I don't rock you in your crib
I come again to the cold fence
I will fix the fallen wreath
And I will sing to you, dear son...

***
They usually leave without saying goodbye,
Without whispering my last words,
Perhaps without going on a long journey,
On that long road of dreams and dreams.
Just yesterday they smiled sweetly at us,
Their eyes emitted a bright light,
And as always, waiting for us to visit,
We dreamed of giving our friendly advice.
They, like all of us, really wanted to live,
And every moment brought them joy,
We didn’t have time to do everything we wanted to do,
They still had so much strength.
At some point, everything broke off,
Someone from above told them their deadline,
The soul rushed about in confusion,
That she didn’t even have time to tell us a few words.
Even if they are not with us, we love them,
And we remember joyful days,
And our heart will never forget them,
It’s as if they are somewhere nearby.

***
We are sad and sad
And there are no other feelings.
Let's remember all the parents,
Let's remember all our relatives!

Let's remember all those who have passed away,
In the prime of his life,
Brothers and sisters of the dead,
Friends and strangers!

They once lived
And they made us happy
Laughed and loved
They took care of us.

A long time ago or recently
They are no longer with us
And reverently to the grave
We bring a bouquet!

In fast-flowing time
We don’t remember other things,
But you are family to us
More alive than all the living!

We ask You, Lord,
About mercy alone,
Forgive their sins, Lord,
May their souls rest!
***
Among those who love there is agreement
Among the lonely there is only pain
Among those deceived by love - revenge
And among the dead - memory and separation

***
Death took you away on a path of no return
And brought me beyond the boundaries of existence.
Here I dissolved in the quiet echo of the alarm
A life lived “in Russian” is yours.
And all that was in the heart before was pain and rage,
Dreams, hopes, faith and love -
In the space of space it suddenly invisibly disintegrated,
But maybe it will be reborn in someone again.
And there are white-trunked birches near the grave,
When the moon is silent in the night,
Tears and dew fall before the clear dawns of the earth,
That the mother's eyes did not drain to the bottom.

***
Your watch has stopped. how you didn’t want to leave!!!
But the heart has stopped beating, and we can’t bring you back,
You've been through a lot in your life,
War and famine, but you survived in spite of everyone.
Your clock ticks in your friends' houses, everyone loved you! you've always been lucky!
Giving life to your family’s watches, you poured your breath into them.
You lubricated their hearts and eased the hours of suffering.
But you couldn’t help yourself, and it’s useless to lubricate your heart.
I didn’t win this fight, I gave it all, I gave it all for free.
We gave you the warmth of our hearts, and we were always with you,
Our dear grandfather, father-in-law, father and father-in-law,
You were so afraid to be alone, you were so afraid to be with yourself.
But the black hag came to you, swinging her scythe and hitting you right in the heart.
The clock has stopped, but the soul
Stayed with us, we are always with you, we are together.
February, frost, trees without leaves, and we haven’t learned to live without you.
You wanted to be with us so much, but alas
Your watch has stopped...

Funeral toasts

Funeral toasts at a wake are usually said at the table. They do not necessarily specify the identity of the deceased. You can express general condolences to all the deceased:

The grandfather sat in heaven and wept bitterly. A boy came up to him and asked why he was grieving. The old man answered him:
- There is a custom on earth - to drink for the repose of our souls. And then we are always full and with a full jug of wine. We are glad that the children remember us. And now I have an empty jug and that’s why I’m sad.
So let's drink to those who are not with us!

Friends, today is a day of sorrow. There was a time when we had fun and rejoiced with someone who left us. But today you and I drink this cup of sorrow ourselves, having spent last path someone close to us. Not everyone in the world was honored with the Dormition, like the Mother of God and other holy people. But we will keep in our hearts the good memory of our friend, having hope for the resurrection and new meeting in a new place. Let's drink to the dregs the wine of sadness!

In a wolf pack, the leader suddenly died without leaving a will. The wolves announced a meeting to elect a new leader. For three days they argued and squabbled, because each was afraid that the new leader would begin to take revenge on those who voted against him. When they were already hoarse from screaming, the old wise wolf stood up and said:
- Let's choose someone from outside our pack to be an impartial leader.
Everyone agreed and asked who. Then the wise old wolf suggested choosing a goat as leader. The wolves began to be indignant:
- We just didn’t have enough goats yet!
But the wise old wolf explained:
- Even though he is a goat, he has one advantage: if he starts causing chaos, he can always be bullied.
The wolves agreed with a laugh and called the goat. When they brought the goat trembling with fear, they said to him:
- Listen carefully! We will choose you as our leader if you don’t act like a jerk.
The goat became even more frightened and replied:
- I'm a goat. But I renounce my asshole past. I swear I will never be an asshole again.
The wolves made an approving noise and dedicated the goat to their leader.
“Now you are our leader,” said the old wise wolf. - You can order us whatever you want, and we will obey. Our fate is in your hands.
All the wolves, with their tails between their legs, nodded affirmatively and asked the goat to make a speech. The goat quickly jumped onto the rock, spread his legs wider, fluffed out his beard, stuck out his horns, looked around the silent flock with a slow gaze and bleated sternly:
- Well, which one of us is the goat?
So let's remember our glorious leaders!

Also, toasts at a wake can be expressed in poetic form:

Blessed memory of those who have left us,
Let's drink to this now.
Let it be like granite in our hearts,
Preserves the memory of loved ones who have passed away.
Let all the good things that happened to them
A damp grave will not bury you.
No matter how long we keep the memory,
He will live with us for that long.

Funeral notes

You can also honor the memory of the deceased with the help of memorial notes. In churches there is a special table where there is a sample memorial note on which you can write it. A cross is placed at the very top of the sheet and marked “for repose.” Then they write full names deceased in the genitive case and in church writing (for example, Ivan - John), neatly and legibly. Usually about ten to fifteen names are written. Moreover, everyone who is written there must be baptized in the Orthodox Church.

In addition to the names, the note indicates which deceased person is: newly deceased - deceased for forty days after death or ever-memorable (worthy of constant remembrance) - deceased who has a memorable date on this day.

When going to a funeral or wake, it is important to remember etiquette. You need to behave delicately and tactfully. It is worth preparing words of condolences, which can be expressed through a funeral speech, memorial poems or toasts. An appropriate and competent speech will be appreciated with gratitude by the family and friends of the deceased.

This page shows examples of epitaphs, words, and phrases that are possible when applied as an inscription on a gravestone or monument.

Placing EPITAPHS on a monument is a very ancient tradition. The word “epitaph” itself comes from the Greek “epitaphios”, which means “tombstone”. But in essence, behind the ritual term of Greek origin there is simply an inscription on the monument, either on behalf of the deceased, as an appeal to the living, or from the relatives of the deceased addressed to him. Tombstone epitaphs are found as poetic lines, inscriptions in prose, and words from the Bible.

Your bright, pure image is always with us.

You, leaves, don't make noise, don't wake up our mother.

It’s so easy to imagine you alive that it’s impossible to believe in your death.

Don't call me, I won't come to you. Don't rush to me, I'll wait for you.

You passed away too early, Words cannot express our pain. Sleep, dear, you are our pain and wound, The memory of you is always alive.

Eternal memory.

We remember, we love, we mourn.

You passed away instantly, but the pain remained forever.

It is impossible to return, it is impossible to forget.

Our son, our grandson, our beloved person has gone, gone into the constellation of mists, leaving this world, leaving too early in a short moment of fate, you have lived a whole century.

A person with a kind soul and a pure heart.

Life is eternity, death is only a moment.

Those who lived their lives with dignity, rest in peace.

People cannot be alive forever, but happy is the one whose name will be remembered.

Eternal peace and bright memory...

Happy memory of you.

Good memory of you.

It seemed like you were about to fly, just the wings fledged, but the wings broke. And we cannot mourn the loss...

Son! How painful it is to part, not to hear words, not to see eyes, but you are always in our souls.

In that hour, the last on earth, our soul was yearning for you...

You are our eternal pain.

All that remains is the earthly consolation of being silent and crying, crying and being silent...

She waited - spring would come, the snow would melt, it came and passed, She didn’t know.

There was no one more precious than you and no one else will be.

To our beloved, dear ones - for your kindness, your love, our last gift.

But I don’t want to know that time heals and everything comes with it.

You wanted to share your love, cordiality, tenderness with everyone, but you didn’t have enough strength, you went into eternity, leaving us to live with sorrow.

The earth is empty without you...

How early your flight in life was cut short, causing pain, destroying all hopes, and each of us would give everything, everything, to bring you back, so that everything would be as before.

It’s so easy to imagine you alive that it’s impossible to believe in your death...

God! Receive my spirit in peace.

Most Holy Theotokos Save Us.

May you rest in peace...

I died by submitting to nature. But my soul contained thousands of souls, one of them went out - what a small thing? I live in the thousand remaining...

You are nearby, and everything is fine: And the rain and the cold wind. Thank you, my dear, for being in the world. We are close, but we might not have met each other. My only one, thank you. To you for being in the world.

Blessed are they, they are merciful, for they will receive mercy...

How death's taste is impeccable in selecting the best among us...

A star fell on my palm - a little loved one. It’s a pity that you lived only a little while, but our love remained forever...

With one flower the earth became poorer and one star became richer than the sky...

There is no more beauty, smile and warmth, you are gone from us forever.

How painful it is for us to live without you, without kindness, smile and warmth.

You passed away too early, words cannot express our pain. Sleep, dear, our pain and wound, the memory of you is always alive.

To the one who was dear during life from those who love and mourn...

The warmth of your soul remains with us...

How difficult it is to find words to measure our pain; we cannot believe in your death, you will be with us forever.

We come here to put flowers, it’s very difficult, dear, we can’t live without you...

The grief and sadness of your loss will remain with us forever; what could be worse than the loss of your husband and father.

Epitaph - literally "inscription on the grave", from the Greek "epi" - "above", and "taphos" - grave. At first this was the name of the funeral speech, and then the inscription on the gravestone. The word came from Ancient Greece, but inscriptions were left on graves in all countries.

First Granite Corporation LLC offers a variety of tombstones made of granite (natural granite), made by high-class craftsmen. In addition to the standard engravings of the portrait of the deceased, we propose placing epitaphs on monuments in verse.

The epitaph itself for a son or husband has been a tombstone inscription since the days of Ancient Greece. A succinct quatrain or several lines of prose reflect the main character traits of a living person and what he achieved during his life. This is a kind of summation of life. An example of such an epitaph is the phrase: “Your rapid takeoff is over in an instant. All that was left was a scream in my heart.” At the same time, these inscriptions are able to cheer up loved ones, capturing light sadness for a deceased father or mother.

The first author's epitaphs began to appear in the 16th century, and the art of epitaphs in Russia reached its true flowering already in the 18th century, and this, of course, concerned mainly the graves of the aristocracy. In Russia there was great literature, in the 18th and 19th centuries, many wrote, and many did it very well, and, of course, it left its mark on everything, including gravestones. Until now, people go to ancient cemeteries, admire the skillful monuments, elegant engravings, read the inscriptions on the grave in verse - this is a kind of book of memory of long-gone lives...

When ordering a memorial, not only dates of life and farewell words are engraved on the stone, but also portraits of the deceased, often very artistic, using both mechanical and laser engraving. Such portraits can themselves be called objects of art.

Before ordering a monument, you can familiarize yourself with the models of monuments we produce on our website. And in the “Ritual Pictures” section, get acquainted with the options for images and epitaphs themselves, which can be applied to the selected monument.

Our specialists are ready to undertake not only the production and design of the monument, but also its delivery to any region of the Russian Federation. The low cost of the monument is due to the fact that the company itself is engaged in the extraction of granite, its processing and further use as a material for the manufacture of the monument, which significantly reduces the total cost of the products we offer.

As well as texts that our master can engrave on the monument:

1) We remember, we love, we mourn.

Words cannot express our pain.
Sleep, dear, you are our pain and wound,
The memory of you is always alive.
