Dearly Beloved,
We gather here today to mourn the loss of a truly special soul, but also to celebrate the life and memories of someone who has left an indelible mark on us all. Hubery, our dear cousin, was, and will always be, a shining example of humility, kindness, and passion.
It is said that the measure of a person's life is not by the number of years they have lived, but by the impact they have left on the world around them, and the lives they have touched. Hubery embodied this philosophy throughout their life, always giving more than they took and seeking to inspire others to be their best selves.
Hubery's humility, an uncommon virtue in today's world, guided them on a journey filled with love, compassion, and a genuine wish to create a better world. The unwavering support and compassion offered by Hubery to everyone around, without expecting anything in return, was a testament to their innate kindness.

Our dear cousin Hubery was an inspiration in every sense of the word – showing us that life isn't about accomplishments, money, or fame, but rather the relationships we forge, the hearts we touch, and the memories we create with those we hold dear. Hubery's life is a reminder to us all of the power of love, selflessness, and humility.
As we pay our respects today and remember the life of our beloved cousin, I would like to share the Lord's Prayer, a fitting reminder of Hubery's strong faith and deepest beliefs:
Our Father, who art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come.
Thy Will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
As we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil.
Amen.
This prayer is a testament to the compassionate and empathetic spirit that Hubery embodied. As we say our final goodbyes and hold onto the memories we've shared, let us move forward with our hearts full of love and our minds filled with cherishment of the time we spent with our dear cousin.
In closing, I want to leave you with this thought – Hubery's legacy is not one of material objects or tangible possessions, but it's the gentle touch that still lingers on our hearts and souls long after they have left us. Let us remember and honor Hubery by carrying their torch – a torch of love, humility, and inspiration – so that we may too, one day, leave this world better than we found it.
Rest in eternal peace, our beloved cousin, Hubery.
