The loss of my husband, partner, lover, friend is the most excruciating heartache and pain I have ever experienced.This pain is simply indescribable! it’s better heard ( like in a story) than felt. Segun, if my tears could bring you back, you would have woken up immediately I was told! I miss you so much, it hurts too much for words! Sometimes, I still think it’s a bad dream and I’m yet to wake up.
Today, we would have celebrated your birthday. I had already bought you a gift, in my usual early preparation (planning officer) manner. Oh death! Where is thy sting!
As your wife, You taught me so many beautiful things and made me a stronger person. You were a wonderful and unforgettable Person, Husband, Friend, Partner and Father to our kids! Oh,how was I to know that your Creator would call you back home so suddenly! Despite all our plans for the most exciting and fruitful lifetime together! Oh death! Where is thy sting!
Our kids miss you so much! it breaks my heart all over again anytime your baby boo asks me ‘why did daddy leave us all alone ? I miss him!’ I wish I could give her real comforting answers for her growing mind, instead of ‘Daddy Loves you very much’ We miss you, your hugs, your kisses, your smiles, your jokes, your presence, your everything! You were nice and caring to all, always ready to help others even to our own discomfort. Segun, by God’s grace I promise to do my very best towards achieving our dreams and goals especially for our kids!
Only our Creator can comfort us and fill this void your death has caused us. Only God has shown Himself strong and mighty in our affairs since you left us.In all things, I give God all glory and praise.
I thank God for your life well spent and the opportunity to meet, love,marry you and to have your kids! It’s a beautiful phase of my life that can never be forgotten!
I thank Your friends for this page, as an opportunity to keep your candle burning forever. I’m happy that our kids will grow up to read this page with the knowledge that their father is a great Man even in death! I could go on typing stories about you to fill a million books and it would still not be enough to express myself completely.
Rest assured, I will always tell them how Loving,smart, intelligent, hardworking, happy, resourceful and kind hearted you were.
Rest on Ife mi!
You neva ceased to put smiles on my face and that of my family each time we came around.

Words are not enough to tell the pain:
Seeing another friend gone again!
We toil and sweat in sun and in rain:
And then we look up: O all is vain!
Lord, help us to see You in all we do;
To bear each other's burden through;
Not to go the way the proud do,
But to see each one the way we see You.
It's hard for these tears to dry.
Pained, i couldn't help but cry.
Many friends we've lost on this trip,
But Dear Lord, may we not lose Your grip.
Dan, in everything you did, you stood tall,
You were a friend to me and us all;
In the office, home and even in the mall
You make us laugh and almost fall.
Shocked we've been and still are,
Our hearts bear a very big scar:
You were loved both near and far.
To us, you'll always remain a star.
Adieu Daniel Hot-On-U!
May your gentle soul rest in the bosom of the Lord.

i still find it hard to believe you are gone forever. U stood by me through the hardest part of my life,DT I begin to wish and imagine you are my brother, the news of your death breaks my heart,even till this day I am wishing for a miracle for u to just wake up...
This is just so sad, you were full of life,you gave hope even when you don't see the hope anywhere,BT just to see a smile on faces,u make us feel their is hope some where around the conner..
oh Dee as I always cal you, you left in a short while without saying good buy to your friends and love ones, I will always miss you,and each of your advice to me shall be made use of...I pray all what you left behide be kept safe from harm.....
Oh Daniel Hotonu Rest in Peace ....you will forever be remembered.
When I heard about your death, my heart physically stopped, I was unable to breath.
I can't believe that you're gone Dan.
I can't believe that i won't hear u call me that new nickname (Okugo D'cougar)...
I can't believe that i won't see you to call you Daniii!!Boil!! or Hot-on-u...
I can't believe I won't open ur office to ask u any-show again..
I can't believe I won't be getting those funny gists and good advices anymore.
My heart, my head are full of tears as am writing this.
Am sorry I wasn't there to call your attention to the parked truck.
Dan you re a friend, a brother and a colleague.
May the Good Lord comfort your loved ones.
Good bye my good friend.
I pray and I know that you are happy where ever you are.
Rest in perfect peace bro.
More intimately closer we became, sooner you’re no more leaving me to wonder the mystery between life and death. Your silence has beckoned the glorious exit which, unnoticeably your last moment jokes could leave no clue. It’s indeed sad and difficult to accept how wonderful Pals, like you, depart! I take solace with certainty that it’s well with your Soul, Gentle and kind-hearted friend. Rest On!
Daniel is gone but his memories is still with us.There is no single day that I did not speak with him. He is full of life and always happy. Every problem must have a solution with him. Always happy to step in for people.
Baba you have done your bit. Wherever you are,know that you are being remembered for good. Omo Ilesanmi is missing you..... Adieu.
You were funny but not insultive
You were playful but never unserious
You didn't live long but you lived well
The length of your days; short. But the depth; long.
We cry today not because you are gone
Only because no one can fill your place in our hearts
Even in the deepest pain you made us laugh
Laughter now I can't bring to your dearest wife
Our tears today; not that we are weak.our love it is what it shows
That last time I said 'I miss you'
You last reply was 'i love you'.today I know the difference
We can't question GOD...
Dan, please help tell Him..
Tell God we are glad we met you
Dont forget to mention that we need help on how to go on daily without you
Mum, Dad,wife and Kids will want to speak with you again.
Tell him to speak on your behalf to their heart.
Goodbyes are only for those who love with their eyes.Those who love with their heart there is no thing like separation.
We we spent most of your last week of existence on earth together going to eat and check out certain stuff for our projects. Your impact in my life will never be forgotten. you are a rare and fine gentleman. God knows best and I find solace in that. Rest in Peace. Love you.
