Funeral Oration

A funeral oration is a speech given at a funeral or memorial service to honor and remember the deceased. It typically reflects on their life, virtues, contributions, and the impact they had on others. The purpose is to pay tribute, provide comfort to mourners, and celebrate the individual's legacy. Funeral orations can be formal or informal, and they serve to bring people together in mourning and reflection, offering both recognition of loss and appreciation of the person’s life and character.
