IPINAGLULUKSA ngayon ng buong sambayanang Filipino ang pagkamatay ni former President Benigno Simeon Aquino III, kabilang na ang mga personalidad na nanungkulan sa ilalim ng kanyang administrasyon. Ilang kilalang celebrities din ang nagsilbi sa pamumuno ni P-Noy mula taong 2010 hanggang 2016, kabilang na riyan ang Kapuso Primetime King na si Dingdong Dantes. Naging Commissioner-at-Large ng National Youth Commission ang aktor sa ilalim ng Aquino administration at bilang pagsaludo at pamamaalam sa dati niyang boss, isang mensahe ang ipinost niya sa Facebook at binalikan ang ilang mahahalagang tagpo noong makasama niya si P-Noy. “PNoy was a champion of youth development. He headed the Philippine Delegation in the monumental 2015 Paris Climate Change Conference, where we presented the Filipinos’ pledge and call for urgent global climate solution as part of the youth-led #NowPH movement. “He also institutionalized November 25 of every year as the ‘National Day for Youth in Climate Action’,” simulang pagbabahagi ng aktor. “He selflessly dedicated his life to public service, and was a formidable beacon of uprightness and incorruptibility during his administration. “But, I am truly grateful that I had the opportunity to know him beyond work. Because behind that seat of power was a simple man, who beams with humility, inspiration and hope for the country,” aniya pa. “I cannot thank him enough for the trust and confidence that he bestowed on me. And, I am truly honored to have served the Filipino Youth under his leadership,” dagdag pang papuri ni Dong kay P-Noy. Sa huli, pinasalamatan niya ang dating pangulo sa hindi matatawarang serbisyo na inialay niya sa sambayanang Filipino. “He will be in our prayers, and we will always be deeply thankful for his service to the nation and to this generation. We know that He has seen his good work and that he is already with Him, resting in heaven’s glory,” sabi pa niya. Kaninang umaga sumakabilang-buhay ang dating Pangulo sa edad 61. “It is with profound grief that on behalf of our family, I am confirming that our brother Benigno ‘Noynoy’ S. Aquino III died peacefully in his sleep. “His death certificate pronounced his death at 6:30 a.m. due to renal disease secondary to diabetes,” ayon kay Pinky Aquino-Abellada, isa sa mga naulilang kapatid ni P-Noy.
