Dolphy has been a father figure to a lot of celebrities and is well-loved by the whole industry because of his down-to-earth personality.

“Oo. Yun din… yun, anak din siya ni Tatay, e. Kaya hindi mo maiiwasan na…

"Siya si Shirley, ako naman si Dil,” Smokey said, naming their characters in John en Marsha and Home Along Da Riles, respectively, in which they both played Dolphy’s children.

“Nagkita-kita kami noon, sabi niya, 'O, 'eto, anak ko din ‘to.'

"Dun mo makikita na marami talagang nagmamahal, e… na marami talagang ayaw pa, e… ayaw pang mawala si Tatay talaga, e. Ayaw namin, e.

“Kaya siguro, puwede ko na din pasalamatan lahat... yung lahat ng nagdadasal na simula nung una pa, 'tapos lalo na hanggang ngayon na hindi pa rin tumitigil ng pagpapakita ng suporta at pagdarasal kay Tatay, kasi naa-appreciate po yun ng pamilya Quizon.”

TWITTER SUPPORT. Many celebrities shared their concern through Twitter, making the hashtag #PrayForDolphy trend number one, locally.

Amy Perez (@perezamy) tweeted on June 15, “Mga kapatid pls include tito dolphy sa prayers nyo tonight! Thanks so much!”

This was followed by two other tweets from her in the following days.

“Lord i pray that you cover tito dolphy with your most precious blood and take away any pain his feeling now. #prayfordolphy,” she tweeted on June 21.

On June 22, Amy also tweeted, “Pls. Continue praying for tito dolphy. #prayfordolphy,” even posting a Twitpic of their picture together.

The Megastar, Sharon Cuneta (@sharon_cuneta12), tweeted today: “P.S. @senmiriam @kikopangilinan I am only one of the millions who are not just praying for tito Dolphy's recovery, but also for him to be named National Artist as soon as possible, while he can still feel our love and respect for him. He is a national treasure as well. We need to acknowledge that as soon as possible. Pls RT this.”

Concert King Martin Nievera (@foreversinging4u), tweeted last Sunday, “Everyone everywhere please pray for our Dolphy!”

Last Wednesday, Agot Isidro (@agot_isidro) tweeted, “Sending good vibes to the Quizon family. Prayers of healing and recovery for Mang Dolphy. #PrayForDolphy.”

Bianca Gonzalez (@iamsuperbianca) tweeted yesterday, “ronnie, son of dolphy, shares that tito dolphy makes facial reactions and tries to peek at his visitors. :) #PrayForDolphy.”

Erik Santos tweeted just this morning, “Praying hard for Tatay Dolphy. #PrayForDolphy

    Tama na please. Gamit na gamit na si Dolphy. Yung pamilya nya, mga celebrities, pwede naman maging concerned at emotional nang walang painterview. Pati press nakatambay sa hospital na parang death watch. Is this still about Dolphy or is this about people around him seeking attention? Give the man some peace and dignity.
