AJ Perez killed in Tarlac highway accident

We were at Splash Island when my niece Abby told me that a certain AJ Perez who’s an ABS-CBN artist died according to a text from her friend. It was on the following day, Monday, which I got to know the accident according to news from his network. I am shocked! Such a young boy from the teleserye “Sabel” lost his life from a tragic car accident.

AJ’s mother just watched “Bottomline” of Boy Abunda on a Saturday night where Fatima Soriano as guest. Fatima’s story was still fresh on her memory and decided to donate her son’s cornea to Fatima. All is just waiting for Fatima’s doctor advice before they proceed with the transplant.

I know how deep the pain is that all of a sudden a loved one of yours will no more around in an instant. That’s how my father left us just last June 2010. After a massive stroke in the morning of June 7, he left us in 2 am of June 10. To AJ’s family, my condolences and may you find the courage and strength with all the people around you and the people who love AJ.
