They died together, they will be buried not far from each other. Robert and Martine, as well as little Tatiana, Olivia, Natasha and Mélissa lost their lives in the terrible fire on rue des Crépalles. Today, time for contemplation but also for their burial taken care of by the Dubois-Tanier funeral directors. Who announce the visits these Saturday, Sunday and Monday from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. And the Eucharistic celebration, at the collegiate church of Huy, Wednesday at 10 a.m.
The day after the dramatic fire which caused the death of the Hut family, the acting mayor Éric Dosogne took matters in hand. To think about offering a burial to the family, to accompany them throughout their last journey to the Buissière cemetery where she will be buried. At the same time, the Dubois-Tanier funeral home welcomed the deceased family. For several days, municipal services tried to contact the families to see what arrangements to take. “Our services work as usualexplained Éric Dosogne . They contacted the funeral directors, then possible families.” And to add: “We will take care of what is our responsibility.” While there was initially talk of launching a fund to raise enough to pay for the funeral, there would no longer be any question of it.
“The funeral directors send us the bill”
Since the terrible fire and the death of the entire family, the City has been trying to get in touch with the various beneficiaries, the heirs. While considering covering the various costs related to the burial. “We must bury the bodies, it is the Napoleonic decree which provides for this”adds the acting mayor who recalls that the City has opened a register of condolences because “there were expectations at that level”. The City should therefore take charge of the burial, the transport of the coffins and the burial. “It’s a public market. The funeral directors organize it and then send us the bill.”
Why a funeral on Wednesday, a week after the deaths? Because there are already several on Monday and Tuesday. Then “the funeral directors contacted me to see if the college was available on Wednesday morningexplains Father Éric Ndeze. Since there was nothing planned, I told them it was okay. Now I’m waiting because the funeral directors have to confirm and put us in contact with the families.”
Buried with dignity
Robert, Martine and the four little girls will be buried in the Buissière cemetery, on the left bank of Hut. The children in the star plot and the parents in the common field. The City could have decided to bury them where there were places but “I didn’t want to separate the familycontinues Éric Dosogne. The parents will be buried at the edge of the common field and the children at the edge of the angels’ plot. So they will be next to each other. They will be together.” Yes, families could still say that they are taking a concession but “I wanted to take the lead because it’s our obligation. We wanted to do things right.” And he adds: “we wanted to organize this with dignity” for this family which was modest. But if the family wants to take control…
