Nirmal Kumar, his wife Usha Devi, their daughter Nileshni Kajal and Kajal's two daughters have been laid to rest this afternoon.
Their bodies were found in the Nausori Highlands in Nadi on Monday.
Nirmal’s cousin Ritesh Kumar says the funeral procession first went to the families home where about 150 family members were present, for a last visit.
He says they were then taken to Nadi Sangam College and then to Votualevu where about 2000 people were present to pay their final respect.
Kumar says the family will be dearly missed as they were generous and very kind.
He says his cousin was always the first to show up to help at any family function.
Kumar adds Pandit Rajesh Sharma gave a moving speech about the family saying nobody should have to go through such tragedy.
He further adds the family was one that always stayed together.
Parents of Nadi Sangam School students held a candle light vigil last night in remembrance of the family.
Meanwhile, Police are yet to classify the case of the discovery of the five bodies in the Nausori Highlands in Nadi.
The man and woman who were taken in for statements have been released.
Police spokesperson, Ana Naisoro had earlier confirmed that the man was a person of interest in the case.
Both the man and woman were known to the family from Legalega.
Investigators have revealed that the findings of the post mortem examination were consistent with a substance consumed by all five victims. More tests will be conducted by the Fiji Police Chemistry Scientific Lab in Nasova.
No visible injuries were found on the five people.
A one year old child was also found crawling nearby.
