Melissa Gibbs appears to have had mixed emotions of joy and sadness after she dreamt about hugging and talking to her late dad Ronaldo Valdez, about two months after his passing.
The former actress honored her father by showing a photo of them together when they were younger, via her Instagram page on Wednesday, Feb. 7.
“First time I dreamt of you last night, Papa. Niyakap kita and sabi mo sakin, ‘Alam ko mahal na mahal mo ako,'” she detailed, adding a crying face emoji.
(It was the first time I dreamt of you last night, Papa. I hugged you and you told me, “I know you love me very much.”)
In the comments section, Melissa said she’s “super” happy to have dreamed of Valdez, also thanking netizens for their words of encouragement.

Melissa’s brother, actor-singer Janno Gibbs, earlier remembered the veteran actor as well, looking back on one of their last filming moments together for the latter’s directorial debut “Itutumba Ka ng Tatay Ko.”
The project is the last film Janno did with Valdez.
Valdez, whose career spanned decades, was found dead in his bedroom in the afternoon of Dec. 17. He was 76.
