Philosophe Ombouma – Word for parent who lost child ?

‘Le Philosophe’ Ombouma asked me : What is the Word … for the parent who lost his/her child ? – May 6, Around Alphen , Holland
In Dutch : Wij hebben woorden voor weduwe , weduwnaar , en wees. Maar hoe noem je de ouder als zijn kind is overleden ?!
We have words for widow, widower , orphan … but what is the word for a parent who lost a child ?!
Why is there no word … ?

Raging Fire | 20140915

Raging Fire | 20140915 | 1-memo•com | Heerenlogement building in Leiden, Sept 15, 1976.
In the early hours of Sept 15, 1976 the historic Heerenlogement buidling (1652 – Leiden , Holland) was on fire. I was living nearby then at the bottom of the ‘De Burcht’ (a 11th century shell keep). After midnight I was listening to music via headphones when I noticed the sound of the raging flames. I took my Asahi Pentax SLR camera and tripod and went up the hill of De Burcht to take pictures around 1.30 AM.
Image Michel van der Burg – scan of vintage print on silk-screened – grid – photo paper, making it difficult to scan and a lot of work to restore the image.

Just before the fire it had been decided to start the restauration of this monument (once a ‘city inn’) as a future location for a new central public library. The attached scaffolding is showing in this picture.
Two weeks later a 17 year-old pyromaniac confessed having set fire to the buiding – he had actually helped that night extinguising the fire and getting coffee for the fire brigade. July 1980 the new public library moved in a the beautifully restaured Heerenlogement building. I – being a ‘poor’ student with a part time evening job – sold some negatives but not the copyright of my images 😉 for 400 dutch guilders (around $200) to the head of that library who planned to have a large print made for the boardroom … and, so I could have a short vacation in Normandie with my future wife and kids 😉 The official opening by queen Beatrix was in 1981.
The image below shows the front page and 1 page inside from the library pamphlet on the opening 11 june 1981.
