Naihatid na sa huling hantungan ang mga labi ng estranged wife ni 'Eat Bulaga' host-comedian Jose Manalo na si Anna Lyn S. Manalo, nitong Enero 16, 2022, Linggo.
Isinagawa ito sa pamamagitan ng cremation, sa ganap na 11AM, at memorial service naman mamayang 7PM.
"Cremation is at 11am today, January 16, 2022. Memorial Service at 7pm via Zoom."
"For our family and friends who would like to join, please message any of us in the family to provide you with the link.
Janine Gutierrez, kinaiinisan pero pinupuri ang pag-arte
Your prayers are very much appreciated during this difficult time."
Naunang pinabatid sa publiko ng anak na babae nina Jose at Anna Lyn na si Myki Manalo, sa pamamagitan ng isang Facebook post, ang pagpanaw ng kanilang ina, na hindi na tinukoy pa ang dahilan.
"Our beloved Anna Lyn S. Manalo moved on from this world earlier today, January 14, 2022. With sadness in our hearts, we find solace in knowing that she is in a better place. She is survived by her five children, Sherwin Nicco, Don Benjamin, Myki, Ai, and Colyn," aniya.
"We plan to host an intimate and dignified memorial service once everything has been arranged. For the meantime, your prayers will be very much appreciated."
Sa isa pang FB post, binigyang-pugay naman ni Myki ang kaniyang ina sa pamamagitan ng awiting 'Wind Beneath My Wings' ni Bette Midler.
"Oh, the wind beneath my wings"
"You, you, you, you are the wind beneath my wings."
"Fly, fly, fly away, you let me fly so high"
"Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings"
"Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings"
"Fly, fly, fly high against the sky"
"So high I almost touch the sky"
"Thank you, thank you"
"Thank God for you, the wind beneath my wings"
Aniya, isang frustrated singer daw ang kanilang ina.
"You were a frustrated singer, Mommy. I remember you practicing this song again and again when I was younger. No matter the circumstances, you have always been the wind beneath my wings. Watch over me. Embrace me this way, Mommy. These photos are how I want to remember you."
"You loved me in the only way you knew how. It wasn’t perfect, but it was still love. Thank you for giving me life. Thank you, Mommy. Thank you for fighting. Fly high and rest now. I love you so much. Always and forever."
