The bells of the Ste-Rose-de-Lima church in Laval, Quebec tolled this morning as five men carried the small white casket of Jacob Gauthier inside.
A funeral was held for the four-year-old, who was one of two children killed when a bus crashed into a daycare last week.
Samir Alahmad, the president of Quebec's private daycare association, told reporters outside the church that he had attended a visitation for the parents.
"It was horrible to see the scene yesterday. I won't elaborate out of respect for the parents. I cried myself."
Samir says every parent in Quebec should feel the pain the family is suffering -- adding there are no words to describe it.
