Yes, but it is not required.
The rituals surrounding death and burial in Judaism are very specific. The funeral must be lead by either a rabbi or someone Jewish (in non-Orthodox communities, it can be either a Jewish man or woman). Although it might be acceptable for a non-Jew to speak at a Jewish funeral in some communities, it would never be appropriate for that person to speak on behalf of the family.
Yes, you have to be Jewish to become a Rabbi.

Consider it done. Ms. Taylor was buried in the Jewish Faith. she may have been interred with a Star of David medallion that she had constantly on in her last illness. A Rabbi officiated at the funeral. She was buried Jewish.
Funeral services were conducted by a Rabbi. some of the last photos of Liz alive show her wearing a Star of David pendant. I guess that covers all six points! She was converted to the Jewish Faith.
