Once I asked Tito Eddie Garcia to confirm to me that the 2nd half of his life was the best half of his life, not the first (What with all “later” achievements). He smiled and said “You’re wrong, Anthony. It’s not the second half. It’s the third.” We both laughed. Praying for him.

He starred in my parents first film, “Tanikala” (1980). I am grateful I met him in April of this year.

He is one of those actors that simply gave his very best no matter what role he portrayed. He is truly loved by everyone. Salamat, Tito Eddie for showing us how to be a real actor and how to be a genuinely wonderful human being. Rest with the Lord now. #ripmanoy

I was hoping you would wake up. Clinging feverishly to hope. But I guess it was time to let you go. I am truly heartbroken Tito Eddie. But I'm so thankful that I had the chance to work with you just a couple weeks ago. They say the best way to go is when you're asleep or when you're doing what you love. You achieved both. Goodbye now and sleep well forever... #EddieGarcia #RIP #YouWillBeMissed
