"Dear @CelineDion - Every time you look at your children's faces, you will see René," Streisand, 73, wrote, including a throwback photo of her embracing Dion, 47. "With love and strength - B."

The divas' bond goes back to 1997, when they recorded their epic duet 'Tell Him'.

Angelil passed away at the age of 73 after a long battle with cancer on Thursday, January 14. Two days later, Dion's brother also died from cancer.
