Giselle Marimon-Herrera, 37, and her 15-year-old daughter Allison were found dead in a flat in Glin Ree Court on March 7th.
Originally from Colombia, it's understood some of Giselle's relatives have travelled here for a service in Belfast crematorium.
A 38 year old man found dead at the property was Russell Steele from Scotland.
A post-mortem examination found 15 year old Allison Marimon-Herrara was strangled to death.

Ms Marimon-Herrera is originally from Colombia and moved to Northern Ireland four years ago.
She worked in the Newry area.
Her daughter Allison was born in Spain and has lived in Northern Ireland since 2017.
