Lovely Abella details dream about Joey Paras after his death.
Lovely Abella revealed that she had a dream about actor-comedian Joey Paras, who recently passed away.
On Instagram, Lovely shared a photo from Joey's wake and said she saw a post online about Joey Paras before she fell asleep. "Nakita ko ang post ng wake and interment ni Mama Joey kanina bago ako makatulog, dahil ako ang nagbabantay ng anak ko sa madaling araw kaya umaga ang tulog ko."
The actress detailed her dream about her dear friend and colleague which included seeing Joey somewhere. Lovely described how he looked in her dream. "Hindi siya malungkot, 'yung face niya maaliwalas, kung paano kami nagkikita sa Sunday PinaSaya."

In the dream, their meetup led to a conversation where Joey asked her, "Ga totoo bang patay na ako?"
Lovely said she answered Joey in her dream saying, "Oo Ma, pupuntahan natin ngayon kung saan ka nakaburol, sobrang ganda ma matutuwa ka kasi napapaligiran ka ng flowers."
Joey said in her dream, "Oo nga Ga ang ganda."
Lovely narrated how she felt upon waking up. "Grabe nalungkot ang puso ko, dahil isa siya sa nakatrabaho ko na napakabait at hindi pinagdadamot ang talentong ipinagkaloob sa kanya ni Lord, lagi niya ako tinutulungan at lagi ako nagpapatulong sa kanya kung paano ang tamang atake ng ibang eksena ko sa Sunday PinaSaya."
She added, "Hindi ko alam kung ano ang ibig sabihin ng panaginip ko, pero isa lang ang nakita ko sa kanya, ramdam ko na bago siya nawala na-surrender niya ang sarili niya kay LORD kaya hindi masakit para sa kanya o walang pagsisisi akong narinig mula sa kanya."
The actress shared a realization she had from Joey's death, "Kailangan nating ingatan ang buhay na ibinigay sa atin, wag nating abusuhin ang katawan natin kahit alam nating kaya pa, mag ipon tayo habang kumikita at may trabaho pa, para kahit papano handa tayo sa mga mangyayari."
She also added a message for Joey, "Marami ang nagmamahal sa'yo, Ma, at isa na ako doon."
In 2018, Joey was diagnosed with a heart condition and was fitted with a pacemaker.
He passed away on October 29. His niece Zciara Shyne Sinchon-Fabian shared a Facebook post where it was mentioned, "Unfortunately, his heart wasn't able to recover anymore."
A public wake for the comedian was held on November 2 at Room 102, St. Peter Chapel Annex, New Building, Scout Chuatoco corner Panay Avenue, Quezon City. His burial is scheduled on November 5, 9 a.m. at La Loma Cemetery in Caloocan City.
