Last funeral I went to was for my wife's aunt. And I learned a few things about her that she never talked about in the 20 years I knew her and that weren't in the paper when she died. I knew her as an old lady, but she kicked some ass in her youth and never talked about it.
So I can see it in that sort of a situation. Trying to paint a more complete picture of the person.
But generally, I wouldn't do a long biography in the Eulogy.
