Victor, Victor, I don’t even know where to start. I’ve still not accepted the fact that you aren’t here. I’ll miss your laughter, your smiles, your faith and positivity. You were a light in this dark world. Sleep on until the Resurrection my friend. I love you.
To my brother Victor Loton, I know you can’t hear me now but this is for others to know just who you were. You were the happiness person I knew, even when you got sick you never felt sorry for yourself and you were always smiling. You were my first friend, you were my bicycle chauffeur, I could always count on you to pick me up on your bicycle from Primary School, you worked in the canteen at our high school while you were a student and I never had to join the long lines to get my lunch, you protected me and looked out for me. You were an excellent steel band player for our school Waterford HIGH school and you even performed for the Prime Minister. when we were older I would beg you to go to social because our parents wouldn’t let me go because they wouldn’t send me without you. I will miss your voicenotes in standard English and your bible verses. Will always love and miss you my brother you have always made me proud. A piece of me is gone but I know you would want me to be happy.
A true and remarkable individual indeed
One who has always wanted to take the lead
His laughter and infectious smile
Lingers in your spirit for a while
He did well in the sign language and music ministry
His character and spirit caused him to be loved by many
He was dedicated to whatever he was doing
It still hurts even though I know that you are just sleeping
You have been through so much in the last few years
I have to keep on running in my mind to hold back the tears
You have been through this continuous struggle both day and night
The last time I sat beside you, you smiled and said,”you are alright”
I am encouraged that you held up your faith in God until the end
You are a true brother and a remarkable friend
Mom, dad, Dianne, Trisha, family members, friends, loved ones, well wishers, from death to life; this is the motion
That day is coming, when you’ll again see that smile, his new body will not hold back, he will fly in your arms; see you soon Victor Loton!
Words can’t explain how I am feeling
The friendship that we shared was an overwhelming experience
I don’t know how to tell you goodbye or I’ll see you soon
For this is something in which my heart can’t get into
I remember our crazy fights
That honestly made no sense to me
And how could I forget your infectious smile
I know you were waiting to walk for miles
Pick me up and run with me
A goal you were waiting to come true
I don’t want to say goodbye to you
For this my heart refuse
Because this is a pain
I’m not sure that I can get through
This right here is so unreal can’t believe I am here writing a tribute for you Victor u were the sweetest happiest person I know u were our ray of sunshine u have touch every single life that u come across even in your situation we needed u more than you needed us when u fall we all would laugh together like it was nothing we would just pick u up and bring u home and for days we would just laugh about it I am going to miss the countless times I would come at ur house when I reach at ur room door u would pretend u were sleeping and I would say I know u not sleeping and I would stand there waiting for that laugh I know u couldn’t hold back Victor I wasn’t ready i wasn’t ready to lose u i wasn’t ready to say goodbye no more voice notes no more hugs but I will cherish the memories and as we always would say I love u and I will squeeze u later 💔💔💔💔
I can’t find the words for how broken I am since you’re gone. I wasn’t ready to lose you, my dearest friend. I can still hear your voice. Facing the reality that I won’t hear your laughs again. I won’t feel those warm embrace. It’s too hurtful to think about. I was so looking forward to the race that you promised will happen. You bragged that you would win, and that’s factual. You were born a winner. You’ve taught me a lot; how strong and content you were despite the state that you were in. Your faith was admirable. Always tell me to put God first. Typing this with tears in my eyes, and I can picture you wiping the tears as you tell me that it’s going to be okay. Now I’m left with memories; happy, fun, and crazy memories. It’s a privilege that I get to know you as an individual. You’re a great friend, and you have a beautiful soul. Rest peaceful Vic, until we meet again.
Victor, you were a soldier in the Lord’s army. You fought a good fight. I have so many fun memories singing with you and doing sign language. You made every practice fun. I can still see you sitting on the floor, legs crossed, with the cat in your arms as we had practice. I can still remember some of the jokes that had us all cracking up.
Guess what? Your sleep will not be long. Any moment now our Lord will return. Your family and friends are preparing to see you again on that great resurrection morning. Until then sleep well.
Victor Lotion my friend. Yes I said Lotion, because that’s how we use to spoil up your last name, but you embraced it. Your countenance portrayed an infectious smile, even in the midst of pain and ill health. You were a positive human being, always looking on the brighter side of things. You emulated christ-like behavior always and there’s just really nothing bad that anyone can say about you. You were a gem. I’m happy we crossed paths in life and it was good to have met such a quality human being as you. Walk good Vic, rest well my brother. See you in the 2nd resurrection. You will be dearly missed by us all.
My dear son n brother Victor..your wonderful smile will continu to resonate with me as this is always how I want to remember you…God saw that ur burdens got heavy and no more you could bear..so he puts you to sleep out of your pain and agony…but this is just temporary sleep…I’m still hearing your voice whenever I would hug you and you would say “Thank you aunty Babs..give my regards to Davian”…am teary eyed right now that I would not be able to physically hug you again and to hear those words…but I take comfort knowing that I will see you again rising in the first resurrection on that great getting up morning…continue to sleep my Vic…
Victor you will be surely missed by each and everyone. Your pleasant personality even in your sickness. Your participation in Sabbath School and your commitment to Jesús. Sorry I wont be there for your special send off. Condolences to the entire family
Victor, Victor I don’t even know where to start. A missing piece to complete this puzzle was the day we became friends, a bond that is stronger than glue was your friendship to me. We both would talk hours till our phone batteries went dead and still message each other till it’s charge enough to talk again lol, oh how I missed those days. You were my best friend and I was yours, your passing didn’t just shook me up, it took a toll on me and I’m still temped to call your phone line.😭 my heart is broken and my spirit is let down. God please I need your hands to hold me. My only friend is gone and I’m so alone. Victor was full of energy even on his weakest days and any information about anything that one need he’s there to give an answer to help out. He has thought me a lot and I miss him dearly. He loves when I sing to him and often time calls and say’ Alexxx it’s time for you to sing to me🥰tears are rolling down as I write this.😭😭😭 Victor was a foodie and I always asks what he wanted me to prepare, he would say anything, I never missed any of his birthdays. I always made time and effort for that his special day. His family became my family and he would say while laughing, Alex how did you manage to steal my family along with me😍🥰 my reply was because I’m a lovely person and they love me just the same. He would squeeze me and peck my cheek. To the family, God needed His angel so he took Victor home, yes! It breaks all our hearts but remember He knows best. I pray for added strength and comfort for you all in this time of bereavement and that God will wrap His loving arms around you always. Victor I don’t want to say goodbye so it’s see you later Vic, I’ll forever love and keep you in my heart. Thank you for being my true friend. Sleep for now.😘💖💞😭😭😭
I honestly have no words. One song that our group, ironically called LIFFE, could never get around to being ready to sing was, “Words are not enough, to say how much I care”.
Victor brought happiness and joy to everyone he came in contact with and that is the true measure of success in this worldly journey. See you on the next side brother as we continue to Live In Faith For Eternity.
To a true Friend & Brother, we were all better by knowing you. Your willingness, your sincerity, your child like smile always warmed hearts. Your ambition to always pursue new ideas and ventures even whilst ill, still stands out in my most recent memories of you. You were always highly dexterous & known to leave a trail of sweat from your palms on all your note Books in high school. I can still see you smiling & playing Bass for our Steel Band of 98-99′. “It seems to me ,you lived your life like a Candle in the wind…your Candle burnt out long before your legend ever will”. Sincere condolences from the WHS class/cohort of 1999. Victor George Loton, forever in our hearts.
Sigh words can’t begin to say how much you are missed. I remember back in high school you used to draw my science projects for me. You never got annoyed when i would fuss that my flowers looked different from yours. You would help me wash up after my food and nutriton classes. Today as i watched your going home ceremony i teared up so much. God needed you more than we did rest on my bro ❣️
Victor, Victor, I don’t even know where to start. I’ve still not accepted the fact that you aren’t here. I’ll miss your laughter, your smiles, your faith and positivity. You were a light in this dark world. Sleep on until the Resurrection my friend. I love you.
Condolences and prayers to the Loton family.
Rest in peace and forever in our hearts.

You’ve made significant impact during the time you were with us. See you soon, brother. 🥺🙏🏾
