Ophelia lived a tragic life. From a distraught boyfriend to an abrupt ending, Ophelia did not have a happy life. Now that we look back, maybe death was the best thing for her and maybe, is what she wanted. There is not saying whether she took her own life but she should be honored anyways. This tragic ending was not her fault, but the fault of her surroundings.
If I lived her life, I wouldn't fight death either. She was forced to stop seeing the only boy she ever loved. Then she watched him go crazy believing that it was he fault. This would take a toll on this once sweet girl. Then she finally snapped when Hamlet killed her father. That is when death didn't seem that bad to her and she didn't fight the drowning. So we should remember her as a tragic story, and a struggle of a life that could of been avoided.
I agree with what you have to say about Ophelia. But it does not really tell me the good things about her. And it seems more of a passage of Ophelia than than a Eulogy. You could have expanded on the information a bit.
