NAGLULUKSA ang buong showbiz industry sa pagpanaw ng veteran and award-winning character actress na si Cherie Gil last August 5, lalung-lalo na si Sharon Cuneta.
Sa kanyang Instagram post, ibinuhos ni Megastar ang kanyang pagluluksa sa pagpanaw ng kanyang “true screen partner and true friend.”
Nasa Amerika si Sharon Cuneta dahil katatapos lamang ng kanilang “Iconic” concert ni Regine Velasquez, na nauna nang umuwi sa Pilipinas.
Kuwento ni Sharon sa kanyang post, lumipad siya patungong New York para dalawin si Cherie kung saan siya naka-base when she quit showbiz.
Marami ang nakakita kay Cherie going bald and she even posed for a fashion magazine saying: “I got rid of all the clothes I had that symbolized a past life. I’m completely finding myself and coming to terms with who I really am. It’s just great to have this opportunity and to be alive to start over. It’s like a rebirth of sorts.”
Narito ang heartbreaking na pamamaalam ni Sharon sa pagpanaw ng kanyang kaibigan:
“I flew to New York yesterday with a heavy heart, still forcing it to hang on to that silver hope of God performing a miracle and allowing you to pull through this. I am eternally grateful to hHim for giving us the few hours we spent together.
“You told me about your tree to heaven outside of your apartment window which I didn’t get to see… I said I will see you again today… then barely 11 hours after I left you, I was awakened by his call saying you had passed…
“I leave New York now with a much heavier heart than ever before… because bow I am leaving YOU with the knowledge that I will NEVER see you again… I cannot process it. It seems so unfair. It will never be the same without you. I told you that you had to fight, please, because you couldn’t leave me and that you were a partner, that there is no one like you.. You said yes…
“But God took you home, took all your pain away…
“I thank God I was with your Dad&Mom&R&al your kids to ‘see you off’ — but I am not happy.
“My heart is in pieces again and now I dunno how to put it back together anymore —
because among the many loved ones I have lost these past few years, you were and always will be my most loved.. a most important part of my life and my history, of my heart. What will I do without you now, Love?
“The industry has lost one of the very best actors it has ever produced. I have lost a part of myself no one can ever replace
“Be at peace in God’s loving arms, my Cheech… I’ll see you again someday. I love you with all my heart, forever. Thank you for everything.”
