a commemorative speech

Explanation:

A commerative speech is a ceremonial speech which is given at a special event to remember and pay tribute to something or somebody. In that respect, it particularly makes reference to and praises the distinction, prominence and values of the person, event or organization acknowledged. In fact, at Ronald Reagan's memorial, the group gathered directed attention to his life story and achievements.
