A Consoling and Moving Tribute

Award-winning actor (AA) owes his success to a number of excellent directors who helped hone his craft. AA had the right attitude ever since: commitment, discipline, sensitivity. He started as a stuntman,  starred in various B movies in the beginning. He also played major roles as action star in several action movies and a brief television career playing the lead role in the sitcom opposite a versatile actress. Apart from acting, AA also embarked on a singing career.

His career milestone happened when he played a significant role in a historical movie that garnered major awards in many award-giving bodies. The film is unprecedented in its relevance up to the present day. It paved the way for his many acting awards later in a number of classic Filipino movies.

One of those whom AA owes much of his success to was the well-respected lady director LD who megged him in some of these unforgettable movies. LD molded and brought out the thespian in him. AA got inspired by LD, learned the ropes from her and soon got into directing himself. AA was always vocal about LD being his mentor, and both have mutual respect for each other.

Sadly, LD had to semi-retire from work due to health reasons that got worsened over the years.
During her last moments, the closest family friends came over, and they knew the inevitable was just minutes away. Most could not contain their emotions and were crying, while others kept a silent vigil. AA, on the verge of losing a very dear friend, could not show his grief. Instead of crying, he did his own tribute to LD as a respect to her dying wish. While the priest was administering the rites, AA started to sing some worship songs. He got so carried away by his singing that went on for a time.

In his own way, AA made sure that LD left the world with all those songs in her heart.
