Example of a Cousin Eulogy offers a touching blueprint to assist in honoring the life of your loved one.
Ladies and gentlemen, family, and friends, we gather today to honor and remember a truly special soul, Falelei S. Vuetasau. As I look out among the faces gathered here, I am humbled by the love that Falelei inspired in those he knew, and the impact he made on each and every life he touched.
To me, Falelei was not just my cousin; he was my brother, my confidant, and my guide. He was the one who could put a smile on my face in the darkest of moments and the one who always knew the right words to say. But I was not the only one he shared this precious gift with, for Falelei had a unique ability to connect deeply with all who crossed his path – as a loving husband, devoted father, caring sibling, and cherished friend.
Falelei was blessed with a heart big enough to embrace the world. He was the kind of person who brought people together, simply by radiating a warmth that seemed to touch even the most distant strangers. His laughter was a beacon of light and joy, and I am eternally grateful for the laughter and happiness we shared.

He leaves behind a beautiful and strong wife, who together with Falelei has built a loving foundation for their four amazing sons. These young men bear their father's strength, kindness, and courage. I know that Falelei's legacy and spirit will live on through them, for in their eyes, I see the same fire that burned brightly in Falelei.
Falelei was a man of unwavering faith, and it is this faith that leads us to look towards the heavens today, resting in the assurance that our dear cousin, husband, father, and friend is now among the angels. As we gather here today, I am reminded of the beautiful hymn, "Marching to Zion," which Falelei loved so dearly:
"Come, we that love the Lord,
And let our joys be known;
Join in a song with sweet accord,
And thus surround the throne.
Let those refuse to sing,
Who never knew our God;
But children of the heavenly King,
May speak their joys abroad."
Through these words, we find solace in knowing that Falelei is now singing with the heavenly choir, his voice resonating in perfect harmony with the angelic host. And though we may grieve for the loss we feel today, we are also reminded to celebrate with loving hearts the zest for life and the incredible journey that Falelei embarked upon in his time among us.
And so, as we say our final farewells, let us remember the gift of love given to us by Falelei S. Vuetasau. Let his light continue to shine in our hearts and guide us on our paths, just as it had once so brightly illuminated his own. And in all the days to come, let this love forever bind us together, as a tribute to the beautiful soul of Falelei S. Vuetasau.
God bless you, my loving cousin. Until we meet again in glory, may you rest in eternal peace.
