"They're close, she's close with all her siblings," a source told the site. "It's hard."

At the time, the singer was working out funeral arrangements for her husband before returning to Las Vegas to perform.

"Celine is still in Vegas with her kids making plans for [her husband's] funeral," the source said. "It's a typical grieving process. There's moments of shed tears, moments of memories and laughter."

The site also posted details from Daniel's obituary where people can find out how to support his family during this difficult time.

"His last days were in the wonderful care of the doctors and personnel at Maison Adhemar-Dion, a palliative care center in Terrebone Quebec. For those wishing to send flowers, a donation to that organization would be very much appreciated. Taking in consideration the reserved character of their deceased brother, the family wishes respect and discretion from the media."

The obituary also mentioned the funeral will take place at St-Simon-et-Jude in Charlemagne Quebec, a few days after his tribute on Saturday, January 23.
