A Lifelong Companion and Supporter

In a heartbreaking social media post, Ice described Mommy Caring as his greatest protector, teacher, and companion. From his debut as a child star in Little Miss Philippines in 1987, Mommy Caring stood by her child through every moment—big or small.

“This morning, at 7:54 AM, our family said goodbye to the most amazing woman I’ve ever known: my mom, Mommy Caring,” Ice shared.

He added:

“She supported me not just as an artist, but as her child. She was my fiercest protector.”


Quiet Strength, Endless Love

Ice painted a vivid picture of the small, consistent acts of love Mommy Caring showed—sending favorite food, offering massages when he had a headache, and being present at every gig, every performance, even as they grew older and built separate lives.

“She made sure she was there kahit may sarili na kaming mga buhay. Walang palya.”
“She accepted me and embraced me for who I am, especially who I am not.”


A Promise Made, A Promise Kept

In his tribute, Ice called Mommy Caring his first fan, his first teacher, and the anchor who kept him steady during life’s storms. Though grieving, Ice vowed to be brave—just as his mother had taught him.

“Promise ko sa iyo diba, mama, brave ako. I won’t fail you.”

A Mother Remembered

The loss of Mommy Caring has deeply shaken not just her family but also the fans who saw her as a symbol of unconditional maternal love. Her quiet strength, unwavering presence, and pride in her son’s journey have left a legacy that transcends showbiz.

“We’ll miss you forever, Mama,” Ice concluded.
