The seven children died in a fast-moving fire in their farmhouse Tuesday night.

The funeral for the seven children who were killed in a fast-moving fire at a Pennsylvania farmhouse is scheduled for Tuesday.

Funeral director James Nickel said Friday the service for the children of Theodore and Janelle Clouse will be held at 11 a.m. Tuesday at the Perry Mennonite Reception Center in Landisberg. The Rev. Adam Williams will officiate.

Nickels said there will be closed-casket visitation at the reception center from 5 to 9 p.m. Monday and from 10 to 11 a.m. Tuesday.

Burial will be at the Church of the Living Christ cemetery in Loysville, near where the family lives.

Authorities have said the seven children all died of smoke inhalation. The fire's cause remains under investigation.
