No matter who the celebrity is, there will always be negative comments. No one is immune, not even Celine. Luckily....a huge majority of the comments have been positive. I don't even know why people need to mention the negative on here. There's not only celebrity that's not going to experience that. I don't understand why people even choose to mention it on here.

Anyway....

Luckily because of a horrible blizzard in the US, we had a very slow day today. It allowed me to watch a lot of the funeral live.

Every case I know of is cremated before the ceremony. He will be buried without a doubt.
I've been to one where the person is cremated after the ceremony.

Buried, if he was cremated I don't think the casket would have been present but instead a vase with the ashes.

This is a sign of deep love. Both wedding rings lay - attached on the original cushion of their wedding - on Rénes casket. Celine wore her engagement ring instead. At the end of the funeral ceremony the priest brought her the cushion and Céline put both rings - his and hers - on the ringfinger of her left hand.

they would not burn the man before the cerimony.... That doesnt make sense... The casket takes the body, also, for cremation. But still we dont know.
Typically with cremation it's done beforehand and he would have been in an urn not a casket.

Not necessarily. Some members of my family were cremated the day after the funeral. The ceremony took place with casket the day before. After that the remains are cremated and the urn is placed into the grave in the circle of the closest family only.

We don't know what was René's wish. We can only surmise.

What incredible moments...

The moment where she entered in the cathedral with her boys with this so lovely song, "trois heures vingt".
The moment where she put the cushion with black lili and did L. V. at René's casket.
The moment where she hold RC hands before sitting.
The moment where RC and Patrick took the floor.
The moment where her mother kissed her at the end of "l'amour existe encore".
The moment where she took off from her cushion both rings to wear them, so symbolic.
The moment where she kissed the casket.
The moment where she turned her face at the cathedral and held hands to give her strengh to go on.

Every moment where a movement became history for my heart and my memory.

Love was so huge, so powerful, and so much saddness...

What did Patrick say?  
Does anyone know what scriptures were used?

I am so glad they all have people around them now.  Funerals are emotionally taxing, but so is going home afterwards. I am glad they all have children of their own, and have a loving and supportive family.

So true, when people are constantly visiting, and checking up on, you, it's much easier to get through the day. It's when the visits dwindle, and everybody else's lives go back to normal; when your still stuck in your loss, that you truly feel it.

Did anyone wake up this morning kind of thinking that what happened yesterday was a dream?  I was kind of fuzzy and then it sank in again. I dreamed about Celine all night but they were the most bizarre dreams. I can barely remember them

I did to a point. But then reality struck, but I told myself a new day has dawned. Let's look to the future with open eyes and not be stuck in the past :)
I didn't know love until they loved me back to life because somebody loves somebody!

I wonder at what point this song may have more significance for them?  When the song was recorded in 1984 she would have only been 16. Just curious if it was of significance more towards the end or at some point after they started dating and fell in love.

The song can also be found on the integral edition of "On ne change pas". As far as I know, the song wasn't a hit, nor even released as a single. Obviously René liked it very much since it was selected for that compilation. The song itself has a completely new meaning now.

This is true. The song was never released as a single. It was included in the album ''Melanie'' (1984) which was a big seller in Quebec.

Songs released as singles were ''Une Colombe'', ''Mon Reve De Toujours'' and ''Un Amour Pour Moi'', all of which are radio friendly (on top of being good songs, of course). One listen to this amazing album though and it's obvious that ''Melanie'', ''Chante-Moi'' and ''Trois Heures Vingt'' are its true gems... well, at least for me!

The young man in the wheelchair is a cousin of Celine I think, and he carried the rings at their wedding.
