HANGGANG ngayon ay hindi pa rin nagsi-sink in sa award-winning veteran star na si Michael de Mesa ang pagpanaw na kanyang kaibigan na si Ricky Davao.
Naabutan namin si Michael sa burol ng namayapang aktor kagabi sa Heritage Park sa Taguig City at mukhang affected nga siya sa pagkamatay ng kaibigan dahil sa cancer noong May 1, 2025.
Sa social media idinaan ni Michael ang kanyang pa-tribute kay Ricky para sa limang dekada nilang pagkakaibigan na nagsimula pa sa noong mga teenager pa sila.
“Ricky, my brother… this one really hurts. You know I’m a man of few words, but with you, there’s just so much to say.
“I’ve known you since I was 14. That’s 50 years!
“We’ve been through so much together— from the school lunch breaks we used to sneak in just to hang out, to the countless days and nights as barkada with my brother, Ralph (kapatid na si Mark Gil), and your brother, Bing. We were inseparable,” ang bahagi ng mensahe ni Michael.
Bilib na bilib din daw siya sa pagiging positibo ng aktor sa lahat ng bagay, “You were always the one with a smile, always positive, always kind. Walang masamang tinapay sa yo.
“Never pikon, no matter how harsh the jokes or kung gaano ka grabe yung pag-asar ko sa yo. You’d just laugh it off like it was nothing.
“That was the kind of person you were. Lighthearted, generous, and full of joy,” aniya pa.
Patuloy pa niya, “As an artist, I truly admired you. You were so passionate about your craft, and I could feel your excitement every time you told me about a new directorial project.

“I remember how proud you were when you finally got to direct which was a dream you never gave up on. We worked together on TV, film, and stage, and I’ll always treasure those moments.
“To be able to create with you was an honor.”
Inalala rin ni Michael ang pagiging “singer” ni Ricky na talagang super sing kapag nagkakasama-sama sila sa mga gatherings at private events.
“I remember when you got to sing while Ryan Cayabyab played the piano. You were so proud about that. Grabe… you really loved to sing.
“We always tried our best not to give you the mic, because once you got your hands on it, you would never let it go!
“We’ve come a long way, my friend. And now, I’ll have to come to terms with a world that no longer has you in it. But I’ll hold on to the memories, the laughter, and the brotherhood.
“Rest easy, Frederick Charles. I take comfort in knowing you’re now with our Lord, probably cracking jokes and sharing stories with Ralph and Cherie up there.
“Until we meet again. I will miss you so much. I love you, my brother,” ang buong mensahe ni Michael de Mesa.
