Ibinahagi ng aktres at writer na si Bela Padilla ang pagpanaw ng kanilang ama, ayon sa kaniyang Instagram post nitong Lunes, Agosto 28.

Batay sa detalye ni Bela, sumakabilang-buhay ang kaniyang amang si Cornelio Sullivan habang ito ay natutulog, gabi ng Agosto 27.

"Life really is a series of highs and lows. 💔," ani Bela.

"Our dad passed away last night in his sleep and that is my only consolation in all of this. He wasn’t in pain and he hopefully was dreaming of the happy times in his life. ❤️"

"My sister, Ceri, told me the most beautiful thing last night…my dad loved us, his children, deeply. And he also loved himself. And that certainly is true. My dad loved life and lived his life to the fullest he could. He always knew where all the cool places were in any country he was in and the bands in bars loved him because he always sang along."

"I love the water and I dive deeply because he taught me to swim and be fearless in the water at such an early age. His ability to see a problem and think of several solutions first before reacting is something I try to practice. He never took no for an answer when he believed something was right and he made sure that everybody knew what “right” was. I never saw him upset…or lose his cool. Never saw him get angry or mad at anybody (in front of me). He was very empathetic but still madly funny. And he gave the best hugs, never letting go first."

"I will always wish for one more day, but that would be unfair. For now, and until paradise comes, the memories will tide us over. ❤️," aniya pa.
