Eulogy
9 Answers
I have just lost my Dad and I am looking for a suitable eulogy to for him. He was my best friend, we worked together, always fished together, dived together. I have looked after him for the last 5 years but he looked after me for 50. Nothing "god" based. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Firstly, I send you my condolences on the passing of your dear Dad.
I would never presume to write another person's eulogy - but you have the basis right there in your post.
Expand on those activities you shared and how he helped you develop through life and what a privilege it was for you to return in some small way the honour by looking after him towards his end.
Add some humour as I sure he would have liked that, bet you have many tales to tell.
Take care.

There's some useful advice here:

My own instinct would be to 'keep it light' and, if possible, to inject a bit of humour. Only you can work out how that might be done (because only you knew what your Dad was like) but, just as an example, something like this might be appropriate:
"There are ordinary fishermen, who simply enjoy fishing; Dad was such a fisherman. And then there are dedicated fishermen, who venture onto the riverside in all weathers, when common sense clearly dictates against it; Dad was such a fisherman. There are also true fishermen, whose catches weigh more every time they recount the battle to reel them in; Dad was also such a fisherman".
