Story Of an Hour- Eulogy Assignment
Good afternoon, ladies and gentleman. Thank you for being here today. To memorialize my husband, in front of you all, is not something I planned on. Brentley would have loved to see us all together, his hard-working nature, opinionated, giving and disciplinarian aspects of his personality makes us all love him. He was an amazing being, such a supportive person, my steadfast rock, an irreplaceable part of my heart.
Like all other couples, Brentley and I did not have a perfect marriage. We'd get into fights, arguments, small debates. Sometimes we'd scream, sometimes we'd cry or sometimes we'd just hold each other. Gentle voices, silent glances, hidden smiles, tender hands. In the end, we were always together. We were imperfectly perfect. Brentley never feared to reveal his emotions. He had an opinion about everything. A quality about him that I love. His kind, grey eyes always shone. He lived his life freely, always repeating quotes that he’d google. His most famous `Life is precious, don’t take it for granted`. I always admired his enthusiastic, controlling, determined nature. A leader. Brentley was definitely a leader. He loved to be in charge. He’d joke and call himself a king, while others around him were peasants. His friends would then bow down and say in snotty British accents `Your wish is my command, your Highness`.
