To the end, actor Rudy Fernandez was well loved. The action star, fondly called “Daboy,” was finally laid to rest Thursday as hundreds of friends, fans, and family members mourned his loss after a two-year battle with periampullary cancer. “We love you Daboy! We will miss you!” fans shouted as the actor was buried at the Heritage Park in Taguig City. As far as I can remember, Rudy Fernandez has been grazing the screens of Philippine Cinema.

Yes, we do have a sense of humor. Though another’s (like the writers of Desperate Housewives, perhaps?) insecurities should not be on another’s (like the Filipinos, for one?) expense.
