On Instagram, the former Encantadia star penned a tear-jerking tribute to her late mom on her 19th death anniversary.

In a somber tone, Iza said, “19 years ago, I lost you. How quickly time flies. I am learning so much about life and how tough it can be but also discovering how beautiful it is.”

She added, “I understand you a little better with each passing year. Wish we were given more time to experience this adventure called life together but deep inside I know you are with me in everything I do.

“I love you, Mama. I wish you peace, love and light.”
