It was a beautiful service. There were flowers, White Lilys, Lupine, Foxglove, and so many other wild and funeral flowers. So many kind words said about these two amazing people. Not a single person did not have a tears welling up in their eyes after that.

At the end of the memorizing service was the time for the eulogy's, words of real memories instead of more of the standard words you hear at every funeral ever, and remember the two people in the coffins that lay before us for who they were to us. The world is given two people, and outside those two people are reflections of them in others life, with few solidifications that they were in deed real, not just realistic hallucinations.

Minerva is to go second and I shall go last. Who else is to speak is a complete mystery to me. All of a sudden Albus stands up, I guess we have winner number one.

Albus Dumbledore's Eulogy:

Today we are here to remember two amazing people. We will always remember Lily and James as the parents of the boy who lived,  but they we much more than that. They were brave,strong and loyal. They should be remembered as valiant fighters with good hearts not just war casualties who helped stop Voldemort in his tracks.

I have been headmaster at Hogwarts School for a little over 30 years now. I am grateful to have had the pleasure to know these to people. They were both interesting people and have made an impact on my life. James as I believe was best in Transfiguration and Defense Against the Dark Arts where Lily strengths lied in Charms and Potions. They made such a good team. Where one lacked the other excelled. As a pair they made it work.

James was always being sent up to my office for one of his pranks, or another and Lily had the kindest sole I have ever meant. If anybody could kill somebody with kindness and love it would be Lily. She always made sure that everyone knew that what your abilities are that placed in you in your house didn't matter and what really mattered was the choices you made. After all she was a lion and her best friend a snake. Two opposites we would like to think, but I have come to realize they are more similar than anyone would be comfortable admitting to. Gryffindors and Slytherins are two opposites of the same coin really.

I always believed that the good people will win and be happy and the evil will always loose the battle and suffer the consequences. Lily taught me differently. She taught me that everyone has both good and bad inside them and it is what side you choose to act on is what mattered because really what makes you a bad person is not that you make  bad choices and continually make bad choices. It is you consciously choose do the wrong thing, hurt people for example, for selfish reasons. Good people will try to change and make the better choice. Nobody is perfect and this little red headed angel taught me that was an angel with a bit of a dark side.

When you think rule breaker you wouldn't think of Lily Evans. She was bookish and brave. Then, I think that after all those years in Gryffindor tower instead of Ravenclaw which I thought she would be better in,rubbed off on her. She became a bit more daring,loosened up was more of a child than the bookworm and adult person she liked to pretend to be.

I remember clearly one incident on Valentines day. I was so surprised when I found Lily in the hospital wing and found out what she was Valentines day in her 4th year and James charmed her book to ask her if she would go out with James every time she tried to study. She got annoyed and asked how do I stop this stupid thing from talking,and then proceeded to slap James in the back of the head with the charmed book.

"Say yes and kiss me."Said James

"I'd rather kiss the giant squid than a giant big headed jerk like yourself."Said Lily with a mix of anger and disgust in her voice.

"Fine. The book will stop asking you if you say yes and kiss me, or the giant squid in the Black Lake."

Before anyone knew it,Lily ran to the lake. Took off her outer robes while running, and jumped straight in and kissed the giant squid. The squid turned a bright shade of pink and stayed that way for at least a week. It was one of the most reckless things she ever did. It was February as we all know is a cold month,and the lake was still somewhat frozen . Also the squid could have killed her as it is a wild animal, but he always loved the kids, especially Ms.Evans. Lily spent two full days in the hospital wing after that with a mild case of hypothermia, a twisted ankle, and left everyone else in shock. That was one of Poppy's busy weekends that year.

I have no idea why she did it. It would have been easier to say yes to James kiss him and then break up. Apparently she didn't want to give James the satisfaction of hearing her say that three letter word. I guess that her Gryffindor bravery and their known recklessness finally kicked in to her. If there were only two traits I could say Lily possessed I would say she was as stubborn as a bull and exceptionally kind. Everyone has to have a flaw, and her stubbornness, most likely due to some Irish Blood was hers.

James was always the immature one who was always there when you needed a laugh. Two adjectives that I believe strongly describe James Potter are he was humerus and despite his behavior being arrogant at times was good-natured. He always fought for what was believed to be right. One of the greatest Auror of his age bracket. He will be missed, especially with in his friends, and coworkers.

James, I believe cared to much about prejudice and his image than anything else in his first few years at Hogwarts, but he changed. People do and it's a rare thing,but people can change for the better.

James was always there when you needed him and was very strong willed. He wouldn't let any body change who he was and for a period of time still worked with the Aurors while he has in hiding. It was a war and he was not about to bale out just because he was in danger, a nobel if slightly idiotic Gryffindors choice. He knew this was much bigger than him and wanted to be known as a hero who died fighting for what he believed in than a coward who hid away just so he could watch everyone he cared about be killed if he had the chance to stop the evil doer from harming anyone else for good.

James knew he couldn't choose the way he was going to leave this earth, but he was determined to die as the person everyone here today loved. James died the way he wanted to. He died loved and fighting with a wand in his hand. He put up a fight, but in that battle he ultimately lost. You can't win a battle if you don't try and James tried to fight Voldemort off and he provided at least a few seconds more of life to his lover and son. He was willing to sacrifice everything for the one he loved. Mr. Potter gave knew meaning to death do us part. In my eyes James and Lily will always be heroes, but they will also be remembered as a few of the best friends that this old man has ever had. Thank you Lily and James for your friendship. Thank you for saving us all.

Albus Dumbledore's POV

Wow. I thought it would be easier reading it than it would be writing it. I am a very literate person, but I let my emotions get in the way from what I really wanted to say. I found it impossible to stay professional because these were not only my students and colleagues, but valued friends, and loving parents. It's hard to speak of James and Lily Potter knowing they will not be coming back. I had to stop myself from crying numerous times. Lily was like the daughter I never had. She would always listen to me even though I sometimes sound a bit mad. We are all a bit mad here though.

There isn't and will never be another Lily Evans. She was a very unique person. A perfect angel in the eyes of many. Nobody is perfect, but if perfection had a sister her name would be Lily. She was so close to perfect in every way. So kind,generous and loving. If only she knew the power and strength of her love temporarily banished Voldemort. If only she knew she was the one who saved her son. She is the reason the war was won by the people who fought for everything she believed in, peace, equality, and love. Lily was the orders doe shaped dove.

Snape's POV

Albus was asked to speak. Why didn't he tell me?I could have used his help. I could tell he was holding something back, but I don't want to pry. After all I held back details of how much I cared for Lily in my eulogy. I see Dumbledore sit down and nods to Minerva a good luck gesture is made by Albus towards Minerva, but I don't think she noticed.

I could see tear marks already and Albus' eulogy wasn't very sad, but I do admit it is hard to think of them without feeling empty inside. Their gone and never coming back. A hard hitting reality, that is just coming to pass.
