Kim Atienza thanks netizens for their heartwarming letters on his daughter's grave.
Along with his quiet and reflective Holy Week, Kuya Kim Atienza took time to visit the grave of his late daughter, Emman.
On Threads, the Kapuso host shared a touching post from his recent visit, showing Emman's grave adorned with flowers and lit candles.
The moment became even more heartwarming when he noticed something unexpected. In the video, Kuya Kim discovered two folded papers inserted between the niche front and steel bar that divides the niches. The two papers were letters written by fans of both him and Emman.
Both messages expressed gratitude to the father-daughter duo for inspiring them to keep going every day. One letter even shared that the writer visits Emman's resting place after school, finding peace and a reminder to keep fighting.
In response, Kuya Kim expressed his appreciation in the caption.
"Visited Emmansky today. Saw some notes, you are seen and you are heard. Thank you for loving Emman."
Emman Atienza, the late daughter of TV host Kuya Kim and Felicia Atienza, was a rising digital star known for her infectious energy and inspiring journey of her mental health.
The entertainment industry was left in shock when she passed away unexpectedly in October 2025 at the age of 19.
Since then, Kuya Kim has continued Emman's mission of spreading inspiration and warmth, especially to those struggling with their mental health.
One example was when he invited a netizen to watch his show, TiktoClock, and meet him in person after the netizen's post came to his attention online.
