Role Model Eulogy - This essay prompt was in response to the passing of Nelson Mandela and an examination of Eulogies given for heads of state. We examined Marc Antony's alleged eulogy for Caesar and Barack Obama's eulogy for Mandela. I asked students to think of someone they looked at as a role model and to write a eulogy for them. This was one student's response. Additionally, I have also included the principal's reaction.
