Commemorative speech

A commemorative speech is a speech given to celebrate or honor a person, group, event, or idea. It is typically delivered on a special occasion, such as a retirement party, a memorial service, or an anniversary celebration. The purpose of a commemorative speech is to pay tribute to the subject being celebrated, and to inspire or uplift the audience. A good commemorative speech should be heartfelt, engaging, and memorable, and should leave the audience with a sense of appreciation for the subject being honored.
