Condolences & Memories (31 entries)

  • I haven't written to you in a while, and I don't know why I am now your gone, you can't read this or maybe you can and I just look stupid for saying that, however I've had 2 kids already you'd love them....I'm so sad that No one got to see the chance for you to be a father, you would've been great, I graduated in 2020 and you were all I could think about walking across that stage to get my diploma I love you dearly and miss you lots. Rest In Peace - Posted by: Catherine (Friend ) on: Apr 14, 2023

  • Hey... it's been a while huh? Since I last wrote to you. I had a dream about you last week... you were still alive. But were much older, talking to me and Justin laughing and joking like you used to with us. I'm now 30 years old and still hanging on with every ounce of my will. Any ways, I woke up in tears because the memory seemed so real since we were hanging out around my building. I knew very well... that you passed away. That's what still hurts the most. But your memory will live on through me and others. I hope that'll give me the strength to cope despite it's been a long time since you passed away. I really do miss you and cry over you until this day. Because you were my best friend and you reminded me so much of my little brother. That's why I was over-protective of you back then. Love ya Sean, watch over us and be at peace. - Posted by: Lydia Primeau (Best friend since Isaac Newton JR high. ) on: Aug 23, 2021

  • Hey Sean, we just passed the 4 year mark and Geez it has not gotten any easier. I still think about it everyday like it keeps replaying in my head when I found out about it. I guess heaven was needing a hero somebody just like you brave enough to stand up for what you believe and follow it through.....the only conclusion I've come too is that heaven was needing a hero and that's you.... I just wish you weren't that hero that heaven needed I miss your warm hugs..... That dorky smile...... Just you in general..... Rest well up there as you just got another one of my friends last year Theo, take care of him up there for me and take care of yourself too buddy...... Why is it always stormy weather and brother tell if it all gets better why did you leave why did you die, you finally made your brother cry, I hope you're watching over us tonight so hold onto the ones you love..... They say it gets easier but it doesn't I really do miss you..... Rest In peace Sean David Michael Hunte ❤ Fly high handsome guy. 💚💚💚💚💜💜💜💜💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💛💛💛💛💛💛❤❤❤❤❤❤💔💔💔💔💔💔💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💓💓💓💓💓💖💖💖💖💖💜💜💜💜 - Posted by: Catherine (Friend ) on: May 20, 2017

  • Could you imagine a pain so deep down inside that it can't be summarized in words? you can simply write a pain that touches your toes and up to the top of the ceiling. you can't eat you can't sleep. that's the pain that i'm feeling but my mother raised a girl that can stand on her own but these different circumstances got me feeling alone. all the doctors and nurses say you're dead and gone but it still feels like i can talk to you if i picked up the phone. you can't fix a broken window you just replace the pane, but there's no pane great enough to replace your face with my eyes matted shut from the tears that I slept on. I thank God for your voice and pictures on my Cell phone. But please while your awed in the mist of the Lord don't forget all your friends and time spent on this world. I will never have a friend like you ever again, my heart is a vault now ,i'm scared to let people in. No matter how many oceans or rivers I cry my heart will never let you go. i'll never say goodbye. All of my hours are spent in the place where you lay i can't take this pain anymore why'd you have to go away. I miss you so much Sean it's crazy RIP Cookie Monster you'll be forever missed in my heart and soul. I love you with my body heart and soul to death I didn't know you actually meant it when you said Death :( - Posted by: Catherine (Bestfriend) on: Oct 10, 2014

  • Sean....what could i say even now i'm still speechless and you know maybe you did it because you put everyone before yourself you were tired, but still it hurts. i didn't only lose my cuzin but my best friend and i hope you know how much i miss you and love you always and forever you will be in my heart <3 well i can't still hear your voice like it was only yesterday :( - Posted by: Tess (Cousin ) on: Oct 17, 2013

  • Sean, I am so sorry for all the hardship and pain that you endured in your short life... more than any child/young adult should have to bear. No matter what was going on for you, you were always there for others... hiding deep inside of you what was going on for you. You will live long in the hearts of others and be so greatly missed. <3 - Posted by: Tamara () on: Jun 20, 2013

  • Sean was always different but in a good way. He was bullied alot when I knew him and I wish I talked more and more to him... It was too late to ever say sorry or say anything to him. He will be greatly missed by a lot of people and he has made an impact on a lot of people's lives big and small. You are missed and left us too soon. - Posted by: Nichole (Past friend) on: Jun 11, 2013

  • I remember we used to hang in Isaac Newton, we were the coolest weren't we? I know you can't see this but I'm pretty sure you can read this from the heavens. Justin was pretty upset about your death and so was I. I know everyone was because you were a great friend, and family member anyone can have in their life. You always knew when I was sad and tried finding me, you had the most annoying laugh but I couldn't help but laugh with you. Your smile was pretty big and bright it told a lot about you. So REST IN PEACE bro <3 - Posted by: Lydia Primeau (Friend) on: May 07, 2013

  • Sean, you were a bright soul. Everytime I would see you, you would have a smile on your face! You will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. You will be missed! Forever in our hearts! xoox - Posted by: Cherish (friend of family) on: May 04, 2013

  • Well Sean I didn't know you, but I really wish I could have known you. You seemed like an amazing guy and I'm happy I got to go to ur funeral today. You were friends with a lot of my friends and you seemed like a great guy to have in the world. There Weren't many like you Sean. From what I heard u were so caring! We went to school together for a bit and I was close friends with ur sister for a long time as well as we had many of the same friends. ur funeral was hard. Seeing ur face in the casket resting peacefully and all the stories people said about u were nice. I'll never forget that day at school when I was convinced that u were in my class and was asking u questions about what period we had class they said u weren't in my class and I kept being like "are u sure?" Wow u look a lot like a kid who was in my class. The world needs more people like u Sean I really wish I got to know you better u seemed like a great friend, only the good die young :( fly high with the angels and rest easy :'( - Posted by: Kristin (Aqqauntince ) on: May 03, 2013

  • I had the honor of coaching Sean in Jiu-jitsu, in which I saw a very talented, dedicated and driven young man. He was always asking how he could improve his skills, constantly challenging himself and others. Sean was a very important member of our team. We will certainly miss your wonderful personality! RIP. - Posted by: Christina Barry (coach) on: May 03, 2013

  • Sean was a charming person always had this big inviting smile on his face, no matter what kind of day he was having he would always be there for others first. It's so hard to believe that you're gone, just seeing you laying there today made me cry inside out. Rest Easy my good friend Sean. <3 - Posted by: Lala (Friend of 5 years) on: May 02, 2013

  • I had the honor to meet Sean through our Juijitsu classes at Academy 64. My son also was also in the same class, in his first year of grade 7 at St. Johns and got to make a new friend seeing Sean in school and at the gym. My deepest condolences and prayers go to your family in this time of mourning. From seeing him train he always gave it all he had and wanted to learn all he could. Just from talking to him, he was and is a positive role model to other youth. - Posted by: Ryan Slater (Juijitsu Classmate) on: May 02, 2013

  • Sean was one of the most amazing people I have had the honour of knowing. No matter how upset a person was Sean always knew how to cheer them up. I knew Sean for a little over a year, and during that year him and I opened up to each other. He was someone who understood my problems because he had been there too. Sean I have no idea what we are all going to do without you, you were, and always will be one of a kind. There is no other human in this world that could ever compare to you. I'm going to miss explaining to people why your nick name was Mocha&Cookie monster with you because every time we found it hilarious. Rest In Peace Sean, gone but never forgotten. <3 - Posted by: Teresa-Lynn (Friend) on: May 02, 2013
