    Firemen descend after hanging a Texas flag from ladder trucks before the memorial service in Houston.

    Thousands of firefighters from around the country marched to a memorial service in honor of four Houston firefighters who were killed during a massive five-alarm blaze at a Houston motel on Friday.

    Dozens of fire trucks and emergency services vehicles joined the firefighters in the procession along flag-lined streets leading to Reliant Stadium, where pictures of the four victims were on video screens in the cavernous stadium, normally home to the NFL's Houston Texans.

    Killed in the fire were Capt. Matthew Renaud, 35, engineer operator Robert Bebee, 41, firefighter Robert Garner, 29, and Anne Sullivan, 24. Thirteen others were injured in the five-alarm fire.

    Charles Dharapak / AP

    The damage from the fertilizer plant explosion is seen from helicopters in accompanying President Barack Obama in West, Texas, en route to Baylor University, where the president was to speak at a memorial service.

    NBC News reports:

    President Obama flew to the somber event after attending the dedication of the George W. Bush presidential library in Dallas on Thursday morning. Texas Sen. John Cornyn and first lady Michelle Obama were also attending Thursday's memorial service. 

    Before the memorial, 1,000 firefighters from across the U.S. held a half-mile-long procession in Waco to honor the fallen firefighters.

    Meanwhile, on Monday, the first individual lawsuit was filed as a result of the explosion. A single mom who lived next door to the West Fertilizer plant is seeking up to a million dollars after she and her 14-year-old son "lost all their worldly possessions," the suit says.

    Nearly 100 years after they were killed in battle, British soldiers are laid to rest

    Denis Charlet / AFP - Getty Images

    A coffin containing the remains of a British soldier is carried on April 23 in the Honorable Artillery Company (HAC) Cemetery at Ecoust-Saint- Mein. Four British soldiers were laid to rest with full military honors in northern France on April 23, nearly a century after they were killed in action in World War I. Their bodies were discovered in 2009 when a local farmer was clearing one of his fields.

    Denis Charlet / AFP - Getty Images

    Coffins containing the remains of British soldiers are prepared for burial on April 23 in the HAC Cemetery at Ecoust-Saint- Mein.

    Almost 100 years after they were killed in action, Lieutenant John Harold Pritchard and Private Christopher Douglas Elphick were re-interred with full military honors in a private ceremony. Lieutenant Pritchard was killed in action on May 15, 1917 during an enemy attack near Bullecourt, France and his remains were found in a field near the site in 2009. His body was eventually identified by a silver bracelet with his name engraved on it. Private Elphick was born in Dulwich, South London in 1889. He was killed in action on May 15, 1917 during an enemy attack near Bullecourt, France and his remains were found in a field near the site in 2009. His body was eventually identified by a signet ring bearing his initials. Unidentified remains belonging to two other soldiers were also buried.

    Funeral for 13 victims of Serbian shooting spree

    Marko Djurica / Reuters

    Priests attend the funeral ceremony of shooting victims in the village of Velika Ivanca, about 25 miles southwest of Belgrade on April 12, 2013. A Serbian war veteran who killed 13 relatives and neighbors in a dawn rampage in a Serbian village this week, before turning the gun on himself, died in hospital on Thursday. Serbs were stunned by the massacre on Tuesday in a sleepy rural region southwest of the capital. Six men, six women and a 2-year child died, the gunman's mother and son among them.

    A relative of a victim mourns during a mass funeral in the village of Velika Ivanca, Serbia, on April 12, 2013. Hundreds gathered in this Serbian village Friday to bury 13 people shot to death by a man whom many once knew as a quiet, helpful neighbor.

    By Jovana Gec, The Associated Press

    Mourners wailed and church bells tolled Friday in this Serbian village as hundreds came to bury 13 people shot dead by a man some called a quiet, helpful neighbor.

    Ljubisa Bogdanovic, a 60-year-old veteran of the Balkan wars, went on a pre-dawn, house-to-house rampage Tuesday in Velika Ivanca, before turning the gun on himself and his wife, police said. The 13 victims included his mother, his son and a 2-year-old boy who was his cousin.

    On Friday, the dead lay in coffins — a dozen brown wooden ones and a small white one for the boy — all lined up on a red carpet before a small church near the village cemetery. Mourners, many dressed in black, crowded the small graveyard, just a few kilometers (miles) from the scene of the shootings.

    Two women, relatives of the boy's family, fainted when his coffin was lowered into the grave.

    "Sometimes humans do evil that would shame the devil," Serbian Orthodox Church Bishop Jovan said in a eulogy. "No knowledge can explain why this happened in this quiet village."

    When there's no one to say goodbye, volunteers attend burials for the poor

    Brian Bohannon / AP

    Buddy Dumeyera, the Louisville deputy coroner who runs the indigent burial program, places a flag on 48-year-old Francisco Carmona's casket as students from the St. Joseph of Arimathea Society at Trinity High School prepare to perform their duties on Feb. 6, at Meadow View Cemetery in Louisville, Ky. The students are, from left, Paul Adams, 18, senior, Jeremy Gaines, 16, junior, Nolan Riley, 14, freshman, Greg Atchison, 17, senior, Sean Dageforde, 17, Jake Eddy, 18, senior, school principal Dan Zoeller and social studies teacher Chad Waggoner.

    By Brett Barrouquere, The Associated Press

    Kate Hopkins didn't know the man in the casket, never met him or his family. Yet, Hopkins stood watch over 48-year-old Francisco Carmona's funeral on a gray, cold day at a county-owned cemetery in south Louisville.

    Hopkins joined a group of high school students, a few county employees and a deputy coroner on Feb. 6 to ensure that Carmona, who died in January in a Louisville hospital with no family or friends, had a service — the 91st service for the poor in Louisville since Nov. 1.

    Counties across Kentucky, like much of the country, are seeing more cases of unclaimed bodies and families who can't afford to bury or cremate a loved one. Every situation is unique, but coroners and local government officials tell a similar story: The economic downturn has left many people without the money to pay for funeral services that can cost thousands of dollars, and it's falling on cities and states to cover the bills.

    Editor's note: The Associated Press made these images available to NBC News on Feb. 26.

    Published 12:20pm ET: TUNIS, Tunisia -- Police and mourners clashed at the mass funeral on Friday of secular opposition leader Chokri Belaid, whose assassination has plunged Tunisia deeper into political crisis.

    Braving chilly rain, at least 50,000 people turned out to honor Belaid in his home district of Jebel al-Jaloud in the capital, chanting anti-Islamist and anti-government slogans.

    It was Tunisia's biggest funeral since the death of Habib Bourguiba, independence leader and first president, in 2000.

    Violence erupted near the cemetery as police fired teargas at demonstrators who threw stones and set cars ablaze. Police also used teargas against protesters near the Interior Ministry, a frequent flashpoint for clashes in the Tunisian capital.
