Cancer ... Celine Dion's brother, Daniel Dion, has died of cancer days after her husband, 


















Daniel Dion, 59, was one of the 14 Dion siblings and the eighth child born to Thérèse et Adhémar Dion.
His sister Claudette Dion told Le Journal de Montréal on Friday that her brother had only days or hours to live. She added that he had cancer of the throat, tongue and brain.
The funeral for Angelil will take place next Friday at the Notre-Dame Basilica in Montreal where the couple married, a family spokesman said.

Angelil’s funeral will unfold at the spot where, “21 years ago, he chose to marry the one who will remain as the great love of his life, the artist for which he had the most respect, the woman who gave him light and happiness until his very last breath,” a statement by the family spokesman read.

Dion has three sons with Angelil, Rene Charles, 14, and twin brothers Eddy and Nelson, five.
