The nation is still reeling from the horrific nature of the murders that claimed the lives of 34-year-old Shanann Watts and her two daughters, four-year-old Bella and three-year-old Celeste. But the time had come to bid a final goodbye, with hundreds assembling to pay their respects at the Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Pinehurst, North Carolina, where the mother grew up and where their funeral was being held.

As the pallbearers carried their three caskets into the church, several in the crowd could be seen struggling to control their tears, and the ceremony began with a congregational singing of  Amazing Grace. Scripture readings and additional hymns followed, after which the overseeing Father John Forbes addressed the gathered mourners.
