About 300 people attended funeral services for three children who lost their lives in a deadly house fire last week.

The Hamilton-Middletown Journal-News reports that the services were at Princeton Pike Church of God with burial in Hamilton.

Seven-year-old Alexander Flores-Ortiz and his sisters, Siclali Flores-Ortiz, 10, and Yesenia Flores-Ortiz, 12, were killed in a fire Dec. 12 at their Hamilton home.

The newspaper reports that the pastor officiating at the service read letters about the children written by their parents and an aunt.
