00:00So, nothing ever prepares you for
00:03Oh my gosh
00:05The day you bury your parent
00:07For the day you
00:09Okay, you see your dad take his final breath
00:14And for the day that you utter the words
00:18Oh my god, I said I wouldn't cry
00:20But then, you know, everyone has been telling me to just feel it
00:24So let's feel it, sorry
00:27For the day that you utter the words
00:29He's gone and he's never gonna come back
00:32You know, the mere fact that I am standing here tonight
00:36In front of all of you
00:37Is still so surreal to me
00:39Because, you know, I never thought I'd be at the front lines of a wake
00:43Let alone, like, writing a eulogy for my dad
00:47Tonight, and for the last few nights
00:51We have honored Ricky Davao
00:53Veteran actor and director
00:55Loved and revered by many
00:57Another loss to the industry
01:00He was Ricky and direct to most
01:03But to us, he was Papa, Uncle, and Lolo
01:08Sa aming magkakapatid, mga pamangkin niya at mga apo niya
01:12We all know Papa was a very private person
01:15You know, he was very different with his friends
01:17On set and at home
01:19So let me enlighten you guys on who Ricky Davao, bubbly uncle, dad, and lolo
01:25Who he is
01:27So, Papa was a man of few words
01:30But, you know, he always showed up whenever he could
01:33I'd always text him mong telegram
01:35Yung mga random lang na yung sinasend ko sa kanya what I'd be doing
01:39Like, oh dad, I'm eating this
01:40Dad, I'm like, dancing
01:42I have a performance tomorrow, by the way
01:44Yung gano'n this and that, this and that
01:46You know, sometimes I wouldn't get a reply
01:49But, minsan natatampok ko kay dad
01:52But then, I know from, you know, na
01:54He's a busy man
01:56And I really understand that
01:57Kasi, you know, when he's at work
01:58Alam naman natin si dad
02:00You know, when he's at work
02:01He's locked in talaga
02:02Like, nothing's gonna deter him from what he's doing
02:06We all know that about that
02:07And, you know, alam naman natin yan
02:10You know, but sometimes I'd get that signature, I love you
02:13It's, I love, with a capital I
02:16Y-O-U, all caps
02:18Exclamation point, with a, with a matte red heart
02:22That's a specific red heart
02:24And, from, you know, from him
02:26Or a simple, you know, I'm proud of you
02:28And it would make my day talaga
02:30So, you know, one thing about that
02:33That remains consistent between how he is at home
02:36And how he is on set or at work and with his friends
02:39It's how exaggerated and full of life he is
02:42So, a little anecdote
02:43Back in 2023
02:45I was a new driver back then
02:47I had an unprofessional
02:48I had a non-prof license already
02:50So, I could drive
02:51But, at the time, my mom
02:53Didn't really want me to drive alone
02:56Kasi, syempre, delikado mo sa roads, di ba?
02:59And, yun
03:00So, at the time, my mom was abroad
03:03And then, she allowed me to go
03:05To meet my friend in, ano, in podium
03:07Doon sa Ordigas
03:08So, pumunta ako doon
03:10On my own
03:11Pero, skernotch ko yung kotse
03:14Boom
03:15So, syempre, sinabi ko kay mom
03:18Sinabi ko, pinakay papa
03:19Pero, they didn't really get mad
03:22Kasi, you know, babo pa lang ako
03:23But then, I did another stupid thing
03:26I took a car without permission
03:28To go to dad's surprise birthday sa Pasig
03:31Shoutout sa Wednesday gloves
03:33And then, dito, tita Bibeth, kuya Rafa
03:37You know, like, we were all there
03:39Dito, Sarah Finn, yes, we were all there
03:41Yeah, that night, family
03:43Um, so, I took the car without permission
03:46To that celebration
03:47Kasi, I don't know, I just wanted to like
03:49Prove something to myself
03:50That, yeah, I could drive on my whole night
03:52I'm so cool
03:53I wasn't even 18 yet
03:55Like, oh my gosh
03:56Bunso things, I guess
03:58And then, ayun
03:59So, and then I stayed over at another house
04:01And then, after that
04:03Um, dad gave me a sermon
04:05And this was the first time
04:07He ever gave me a grand sermon
04:10And guys, when I saved
04:12Parang, nakaupo ako sa couch
04:14And then, nasa nanay kami sa bahay
04:16Parang nasa entaplado si dad
04:18Oh my god, you cannot do that
04:21Blah, blah, blah, blah
04:22And I think
04:24That's what makes dad so funny
04:26Like, so great
04:27Like, he's just
04:29That's just the person he is
04:30Like, he's just
04:32He's just that guy
04:33He's just the same
04:34Like, parang nasa entaplado talaga siya
04:36Like, he is just
04:38Born to be a performer
04:40Like, it's just in him
04:41Like, he didn't have to like
04:42Train himself
04:44It was just there
04:45He just had to develop
04:46You know, you know
04:47Like, over the years
04:48As what
04:48Uh, as based on like
04:50The stories that we've been hearing
04:51From his friends
04:52Yeah
04:52And
04:53I really
04:54It was, I don't know
04:55At the time
04:56Kasi dad doesn't really like
04:57Ceremon me
04:58But then
04:59At the time
04:59I was even telling
05:00Sina ate
05:01Kasi they were there also
05:02As I was getting
05:03Ceremon
05:04Like, I was telling them
05:05Ate, ate
05:06Record mo to
05:06Record mo to
05:07Para maalala ko
05:08Tung memory na to
05:09Kasi, I don't know
05:10It sounded so funny
05:11Ayan
05:12Record mo to
05:13Yeah
05:13Um, and then
05:15Um, and then
05:15Um, ayan
05:17So, ayan
05:18Dad always takes
05:19His pagiging director
05:20Kasi wherever he goes
05:21Like, alam naman natin
05:23When dad like
05:24Uh, takes photos
05:25He's always like
05:26This
05:26Like that
05:27Always
05:28Graduation ko
05:29Nandun
05:30Like, he was always
05:31Taking photos
05:31Um, as we were on
05:33Like, as we were

05:39Every time
05:40And, ayan
05:41Dad's never gonna
05:42You know
05:43Dad always loves
05:44The document
05:44It's never gonna
05:45Like, he's never gonna
05:47Not document
05:48Everything
05:49Because that's just
05:49How he is
05:50And
05:51More importantly
05:52Dad loves performing
05:53Loves performing
05:54It was his life
05:55Um, and you know
05:57I'm eternally grateful
05:58That we share
05:59This same passion
06:00As well
06:01So, you know
06:02Papa
06:02He may be gone
06:03Um, but
06:05I find comfort
06:06In knowing that
06:07He lives on
06:07In me
06:08And my siblings
06:09In what we do
06:10And in what we love
06:11Um, I remember
06:13The day
06:13That dad first
06:15Got him into the ICU
06:16Back then
06:17And it was a whirlwind
06:18Of emotions
06:18Everywhere
06:19Talaga
06:20I was confused
06:21Because, you know
06:22Dad is just
06:23Doing okay
06:23Because dad
06:24To me is just dad
06:25Like, he'll always
06:25Be that guy
06:26He'll always be
06:27That super guy
06:28You know
06:28Like, just
06:28Working all the time
06:30And like
06:30Parang
06:31Non-stop
06:32Talaga siya
06:33Like, he's always
06:33On the go
06:34You know
06:34I don't know
06:34That about that
06:35And
06:36And
06:36Because of the day
06:38After I had like
06:39Exams
06:39And I had like
06:40Stuff to do pa
06:41You know
06:41Major things
06:42That in my life
06:43And sa totoo lang
06:44Ayaw akong natumuloy dun
06:45But I thought to myself
06:47What would dad
06:48Want me to do
06:49I
06:50And then
06:50You know
06:51Papa wouldn't want me
06:52To stop on his account
06:53And that pretty much
06:55Sums up who he is
06:56As a person
06:56And as a parent
06:57He always pushed us
06:59To be our best
07:00And you know
07:01There are so many
07:02Things about that
07:03That I still do not know
07:04Like
07:05From the perspective
07:06Of his friends
07:07From like
07:08The directors
07:09Like
07:09The production
07:10People from production
07:11That he's worked with
07:12His friends
07:13And
07:14Other people
07:15That he's just
07:15At least encountered
07:16Like
07:17Like
07:17Like
07:18Very briefly
07:18But really like
07:19Impacted them
07:20Ayaw
07:21Like
07:22That's why
07:23Like tonight
07:24I really
07:25And for the last few nights
07:26I really appreciate
07:27Every single person here
07:29Who's approached me
07:30And my siblings
07:31Or
07:31Have even like
07:33Come up here
07:34And talked about dad
07:35And like
07:36Shared their memories
07:37Whether
07:37Kalokohan man
07:39Or a bit emotional
07:40Or just like
07:41A very brief encounter
07:42It really
07:43Really means a lot
07:44Because
07:44Parang
07:46It's
07:46Hearing about
07:47These stories
07:48It's like
07:49Hearing about
07:49The side of dad
07:50Parang
07:51Like
07:51Measing the parts
07:52Of papa
07:53That we don't know about
07:55But we really
07:55Would like to know
07:56So
07:57I guess
07:59Papa

08:01You're here
08:02I know
08:03That you're seeing this
08:04That you're seeing
