| Advice for funeral words? |

Hello.
Though I am not Jewish, I'm honored to have been asked to speak at the funeral services for my late father-in-law, who was. I've searched around for guidance, but hope this is the best place.
Does anyone have a parable, prayer or the like they'd suggest? I'll be speaking for three minutes, half of which will be about my late FIL, but I hope to show respect for his culture and religion by adding something relaying directly to Judaism, maybe even speaking in Hebrew.
I don't mean that to be funny - I really think at least trying to speak in one's native/historical/cultural language IS a sign of respect.
I'll appreciate any and all suggestions.
Take care, and of each other!

In April 2021 Zablon Simintov said he will leave Afghanistan for Israel after the year’s [[High Holy Days|High Holidays]] season in the fall, fearing a resurgence of groups such as the Taliban after the U.S. military's promised withdrawal.[{{cite web|url=https://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/299613|title=The last known Jew in Afghanistan is leaving|work=[[Israel National News]]|date=April 4, 2021|access-date=April 4, 2021}}][[https://www.timesofisrael.com/afghanista...or-israel/ Afghanistan's last known Jew is leaving for Israel]]
