Jaclyn Jose’s family is still finalizing the inurnment schedule for the late veteran actress.
In Nelson Canlas’ report on “24 Oras,” Tuesday, Gabby Eigenmann said that they are still waiting for relatives coming from other countries before they can put Jaclyn to her final resting place.
Gabby is the half-brother of Andi Eigenmann, Jaclyn’s daughter with the late actor Mark Gil. He is Mark’s son with Irene Celebre.
“Nagpapasalamat kami sa suporta, sa patuloy na suporta ng lahat ng mga nagmamahal, not just kay Andi, but of course, siyempre kay Tita Jane. Sa lahat ng sumusuporta sa kaniya, sa lahat, nagpapasalamat kami. And I’m just here to support my sister,” Gabby said.
“Since na-cremate na siya yesterday, we’re just waiting for the other siblings of Tita Jane tapos ‘yung isa niyang anak, si Gwen, hinihintay lang namin. Then from there, we can decide on when to ano na, pero may mga schedule na kami na so far hanggang, mga nailalatag pa lang is until Friday or Saturday,” he said.
Among Jaclyn’s fellow celebrities who arrived on the second night of her wake were Iza Calzado, Cong. Lani Mercado, and Jake Ejercito, who is the father of Andi’s daughter, Ellie.
Jaclyn, born Mary Jane Guck, died on March 2 at 60 years old. Andi revealed that she died of heart attack.
Jaclyn’s passing was first announced by her agency, PPL Entertainment. The Philippine National Police said her family is convinced that there was no foul play involved in her death.
Jaclyn leaves behind a stellar legacy in both the big screen and the silver screen. She is the first Filipino and Southeast Asian to win the Best Actress award at the Cannes Film Festival for her performance in the 2016 film “Ma’ Rosa.”
Her other notable performances include starring and supporting roles in films such as “The Flor Contemplacion Story” and “Patay Na Si Hesus.” She also starred in several GMA Network series, including “Marimar,” “The Millionaire’s Wife,” and “D’Originals.”
Celebrities and industry colleagues are mourning the award-winning actress and have paid tribute to her on social media.
