The remains of former actor Patrick Guzman, who died last June 15 at the age of 55, will be cremated at a funeral home in Ontario, Canada.
Details of Guzman’s wake were shared by actor-filmmaker Beverly Vergel on her personal Instagram page last Monday, June 19, which appeared to be a screenshot of an obituary from his non-showbiz wife, Liezle.
“It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden and unexpected passing of Patrick Guzman on June 15, 2023 in his 56th year. Deeply missed by his devoted wife Liezle, and his loving children Aiden, Aerielle, and JAM,” the statement read.
Guests of the late actor can visit his remains from June 22 to 23 from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. and 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.. He will then be cremated at Ward Funeral Home in Brampton City in Ontario, Canada, on June 24 at 10:30 a.m.
Reports of the showbiz heartthrob’s death emerged earlier this month, after singer-songwriter Ogie Alcasid paid tribute to the former in a now-deleted Instagram post.
Guzman made waves as a matinee idol in the 1990s where he acted in films such as “Ikaw Ang Miss Universe Ng Buhay Ko” (1994) and “Sa Piling ng Iba” (1998), among others. EDV
