Hearts are heavy as Sheboygan Falls to remember the lives of three young children at Crossroads Community Church in Sheboygan.

11-year-old Natalie Martin, 10-year-old Ben Martin and 7-year-old Carter Maki died at hospitals after last week's fire at their home. 

Their parents were away at a bible study when their home caught fire last Tuesday. One child, 9-year-old Jenna, was able to escape the home. 

A large crowd is expected to attend Monday's service. There will be overflow parking at MC Sports and Best Buy in Sheboygan. 

The visitation is from 1:30 to 6:30 p.m. The memorial service will follow at 6:30 p.m. 

If you want to show support for the Maki family, a fund has been set up at Associated Bank in Sheboygan. 

Those wishing to donate can make checks payable to Crossroads Community Church, Disaster Relief or Maki Family. 

You can also mail your checks to Crossroads Community Church, PO BOX 1427, Sheboygan, WI. 53082-1427.
