The family of the pregnant woman who was allegedly stabbed to death by her husband before their apartment was lit on fire is trying to raise funds for her funeral service.

"He never seemed suspicious, like he could do something like that," Frantzy Noze, the victim's cousin, told NBC Connecticut. “Seems like the guy just lost it."

Patrick Antoine, 39, turned himself in to officals to admit he killed his wife, Margarette Mady, while crews responded to their apartment set ablaze on June 3, police said.

Antoine told police he thought his wife was a Voodoo priestess who had cast several spells on him over the last couple of years.

“That was shocking to me because she’s not the type of person to believe in any type of evilness," Frantzy said about the Voodoo claims, saying his cousin was a Jehovah's Witness. "She's really religious."

During the time Anotine was at the police station, firefighters found an unresponsive 8-months-pregnant 37-year-old with severe burns and several stab wounds at 283-285 Franklin Street, police said.

Now, her family is trying to pick up the pieces and pay for a proper burial. Frantzy said he created a GoFundMe account to help Mady's son pay for the service arrangements.

"She's a family-oriented person," Frantzy said. "Always close with her sisters and cousins."

Relatives said she was expecting a baby girl next month. Family believes Antoine and Mady had been married for around five years.

"She loved him very much," her cousin said.

According to Frantzy, Mady left Haiti in 2005 with her two children -- now 23 and 22 years old -- to come to the United States. Mady had recently worked as a housekeeper at Foxwoods Casino.

"Coming from a third-world country she’s done a lot. She worked at Foxwoods and helped her family back home. She has a lot of her family back home like sisters and cousins. We all do that- Haitians. That’s what you’re meant to do when you come to America from a country like that," her cousin said.

A family friend, Laurie Petrucci, told NBC Connecticut that Mady and her family were "the best people in the world."

A GoFundMe page has been set up by the victim's family to pay for funeral expenses.

"She would have loved having her family attend," Frantzy said.
