"AJ, my son, forever you will be in our hearts. Our final wish to you on your journey: may the road rise up to meet you, may the wind be always, always at your back, may the sun shine warm upon your face, may the rain fall soft upon your field. Until we meet again, son. May God hold you in the palm of His hand. Farewell, my son. Farewell my beloved AJ. I love you. I'll see you soon," says Gerry Perez as he bids farewell to his son AJ Perez.

Naihatid na sa kanyang huling hantungan ang nasawing batang aktor at Star Magic talent na si AJ Perez kaninang tanghali, Abril 26, sa museleo ng Familia Sarte sa Manila Memorial Park, Parañaque City.

Binawian ng buhay dahil sa isang vehicular accident si AJ noong Abril 17, Linggo ng hatinggabi.

Bumangga ang sinasakyan niyang service van ng ABS-CBN sa nakasalubong nito na Partas bus sa Moncada, Tarlac.

Naitakbo pa sa kalapit na ospital si AJ at mga kasama nito ngunit idineklara na itong "dead on arrival," 12:20 a.m. nang araw ring iyon. (CLICK HERE to read related story.)

Ibinurol muna ang labi ni AJ sa La Salle Greenhills chapel, pagkatapos ay inilipat sa Christ The King Chapel sa Greenmeadows, Quezon City, noong Martes Santo, Abril 19.

Dinalaw ng mga fans, mga kaibigan, kaklase, at mga kasamahan sa industriya ng showbiz ang parehong burol ni AJ.

Pawang mga mabubuting alaala lang ang mga naikuwento ng lahat ng nakiramay tungkol sa 18-anyos na aktor na kaga-graduate pa lang ng high school sa La Salle Greenhills.  

AJ'S LOVED ONES. Sa burol ay nakilala ng publiko ang mga malalapit na tao sa buhay ni AJ.

Katulad ng maalaga nitong ama na si Gerardo "Gerry" Perez, na laging kasa-kasama ni AJ sa mga showbiz activities nito (siya ring kasama ni AJ sa aksidente sa Tarlac).

Ang laging nilalambing ni AJ na inang si Maria Victoria "Marivic" Perez.

Ang 13-year-old younger brother niyang si Angello o Gello na umiidolo sa kanya.

At ang 17-year-old na kasintahan ni AJ na si Steph Ayson, anak ng kilalang jeweler na si Suzette Ayson at aminadong dating fan ng nasawing aktor (CLICK HERE to read related story.)

Sa mga artikulong inilabas sa PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal), mas nakilala nang husto ang katauhan ni AJ bilang isang mapagmahal na anak at kapatid, mabait na kaibigan, at mabuting estudyante.

Napag-usapan din kung paanong napagdesisyunan ng pamilya ni AJ na i-donate ang mga cornea ng mga mata ni AJ sa "Miracle  Kid" na si Fatima Soriano.

Pero ayon naman sa doktor ni Fatima, hindi posibleng makatulong ang mga cornea ni AJ dahil ang retina raw ng bulag na gospel singer ang may diperensiya (CLICK HERE to read related story.)

    i don't think that the bus driver eh makasuhan. hindi kasalanan ng driver ng Patras bus ang nangyari. asa right lane sila. given na kapag asa highway ka, lahat as in lahat ng sasakyan ay mabibilis. i'm also a driver so i know. at hindi ganon kabilis kakagat ang preno lalo na kung malaking sasakyan from a fast phase. kung hindi nag menor un driver ng bus, hindi lang yan ang aabutin ng van ng abs. malamang tumilapon pa ng malayo yan at lahat ng sakay eh siguradong patay. ang may pinaka may kasalanan jan eh ung driver ng van ng abs. he should know kung alanganin un overtake niya. and the driver knows na may bus sa kabilang lane. i'm a also a driver. this is just my opinion.

    in tears.., we have experienced a lot of losses in the family. perhaps the most painful part is when u go home and finally realize that the person you love is truly gone. sabi nga ng mom ko ok pa iung wake coz u see people coming. pero pag kayo kayo na lang, especially when u celebrate xmas, new yr, and all, truly u will "cry a bucket". i remember when i received my first salary, nagpakabit ko ng landline coz my dad works ovrseas. when he passed away parang dun ko nabunton galit ko kasi it has lost its purpose, wala ng dad na tatawag dun. hopefully friends wont stop coming every now and then. it will help them heal. iung simpleng mayakap ng mga magulang ni aj iung mga kaibigan nya, barkada nya, para n rin nilang niyayakap si aj. my condolences to the family. and to aj, sweet rest.

    Maybe some of the valuable lessons we can learn from his passing are- a. that the youth can still do so much to live lives worth admiring and emulating, b. that a squeaky clean image is still cool enough to merit the adulation of others c. that more people shd consider organ donation...one is never too young to sign up as an organ donor upon death..God knows we need more awareness for this cause.
