The passing of Hotma Sitompul leaves a deep sorrow for his family and close ones. Behind the figure of a renowned lawyer, the deceased was known as a warm father and a respected leader. This was conveyed directly by his son, Ditho Hasian Sitompul, in a speech at his father's funeral at San Diego Hills Memorial Park, Karawang, Saturday (19/4/2025).
"Basically, we really have a lot of respect for him," said Ditho with a tone full of emotion in front of the mourners.
According to Ditho, the leadership style of Hotma was very different from most authoritarian figures. He never yelled or acted harshly, yet was still respected by his children and the entire family. "And his firmness made us look up to him even though he didn't do it by yelling, we still obeyed. That was in the family," he said.
