Celine Dion returned to the Caesars Palace's Colosseum in Las Vegas, on Wednesday, to celebrate the life of her late husband René Angélil. She was accompanied by her son, Rene-Charles.
It's been three weeks since the music producer and manager - who had been battling throat cancer since 1998 - died two days away from his 74th birthday, but Dion, 47, said she could 'feel his love' in the room.
She went on to describe how Angélil protected her in the early days of her career.
'I was never part of any of the meetings that he had where he had to say yes or no. He protected me from Day one to for the rest of my life, I am pretty sure of that,' she said.
'The love of my life ... would be so happy to know we are all here together telling stories, sharing memories, playing some of his favorite music. And especially in this beautiful theater which many years ago was one of his dreams come true'.
Celine Dion is now a widowed mother to their fraternal twins Eddy and Nelson, 5, and son René-Charles Jr., 15.
She closed the memorial by saying: 'On behalf of my family, thank you again for being here with us this evening for this beautiful tribute to mon amour. René I love you, so much, merci, good night'
