Michael V. paid tribute to his late father, Cesar Bunagan, as his family marked the latter’s first death anniversary yesterday, Oct. 14.

The multitalented comedian took to Instagram to remember his father, noting that they were rather glad he did not experience the COVID-19 pandemic.

“It’s been a year since nagpaalam ang tatay ko. Somehow, we’re kinda glad na hindi n’ya na inabot ang pandemic (It’s been a year since my father passed away. Somehow, we’re kinda glad that he did not experience the pandemic),” said Michael V., a COVID-19 survivor.

“Nakapag-paalam s’ya ng maayos at nasa tabi n’ya kami until his final breath (He was able to bid goodbye to us properly and we were by his side until his final breath),” he added.

“‘Tay, wherever you may be right now, everyday I still pray that you’re okay. Please watch over our families and our friends,” the doting son said.  /ra
