Must viewing: The moving eulogy Bob Costas delivered at Stan Musial’s funeral Mass. A eulogy is a delicate assignment and Costas not only captured the right theme (“simple decency and generosity of spirit coupled with 20 years of sustained excellence”) but also worked in all the right touches and key elements: It was personal, generous, inclusive, gracious and inspirational. It was packed with honest emotion, compelling stories, memorable lines (“Deal me in”) and had light humor in the right places. Anyone who is asked to speak in tragic or sad times should use this as a template — a powerful speech by one of the most talented journalists of his generation.
