[Avodah] Hesped in Nisan

[Cantor Wolberg]

The way I've seen it handled (when it involved a choshuva person)  
was:  Today is (chol hamoed, Nissan, or whatever) and it is not  
allowed to deliver a eulogy,
but if it were another day when a eulogy was permitted, I would have  
told you......  Then at the end the rav would say, so unfortunately  
I'm not able to tell you
what I would have told you had it been permitted. I'm sure you  
understand. (and of course the last four words have a double entendre).
