“On one of the saddest days I have had to live through, I said ‘Goodbye…’ to another dear friend,” ang simulang pagbabahagi ni Sharon.
Pagpapatuloy niya, “My ‘Inay Manny’ was my first writer for my show (TSCS) from IBC-13 in 1986 to many years after we moved to ABS-CBN in 1988. We also did movies together.
“More than having fun and working well with each other, we became friends. Inay Manny was one of those I could trust with my innermost feelings, as well as expect to be comforted by, often ending in fits of laughter.
“He was loving, kind, witty and smart. I will miss him terribly. There is a whole novel I could say about him, but this has been another unwelcome punch in the gut.

Sa huli, pinasalamatan din niya ang yumaong direktor, “Thank you for your friendship.
“My deepest, sincerest condolences to those he loved and left behind. Hugs especially to his best friend, my Direk Joey Reyes. @direkjoey #tscsfamilyforever,” ani Mega.

“Hugs BFF,” ang mensahe ni Ogie Alcasid.

Samantala, ayon naman sa ulat ng veteran showbiz columnist na si Gorgy Rula, natagpuan lamang ang bangkay ni Direk Manny makalipas ang tatlong araw nang siya bawian ng buhay.
Nalulungkot ang gay community sa showbiz dahil nga pumanaw nang mag-isa ang direktor sanhi ng Congenital Heart Disease, Chronic Kidney Disease at Hypertension.
Ayon sa pamangkin ni Direk Manny na si Michael, natagpuan ang wala nang buhay na katawan ng direktor ng isang tenant sa pag-aari niyang apartment.
Magbabayad sana ito ng renta pero hindi raw sumasagot si Direk Manny. Agad itong ipinaalam ni Michael sa kanyang mga magulang na siyang nakadiskubre sa bangkay ng aktor at direktor.
Nabatid na magaganap ang funeral service para sa labi ni Direk Manny da Sanctuarium Crematory sa Quezon City.
