Eulogy for Grandmother
An example eulogy for Grandmother that you can adapt — replace the [details] with your own memories and words.
Gogo, [Name], was the heart of our whole family. To sit in her kitchen was to be safe, fed, and forgiven. She had a story for everything, a remedy for every ailment, and an opinion she was never shy to share. We loved her for it.
She remembered the old ways and passed them down to us — the [recipes / songs / sayings / prayers] that tie us to where we come from. She held the family history in her memory like a treasure, and she made sure none of us forgot who we are or whose we are.
Gogo's hands were always busy and her door was always open. Grandchildren, great-grandchildren, neighbours' children — she loved us all as her own. We were rich because we had her.
Gogo, you have left us, but you have not left us empty. You filled us up with enough love to last generations. Hamba kahle, Gogo. Thank you for being our beginning. We will carry you with us, always.
