The family spokesperson of veteran actor Eddie Garcia said that the 90-year-old actor fought for his life until Thursday noon.
This is why Garcia’s death at around 4:55PM became a bit of a shock to the actor’s family.
In an interview with ABS-CBN News, Dr. Tony Rebosa said that Garcia’s partner Lilybeth was ‘composed’ when the actor was declared death.
Garcia’s partner also stayed beside the actor until the end.
The veteran actor fell into a coma after a taping accident.
The illustrious career of Garcia as an actor-director spans more than seven decades, making him an icon of Philippine cinema.
