People we know die left and right. We are so blessed that God still allows us to wake up today and hopefully tomorrow. So LET’S LIVE. Let’s not waste any second. Love those we want to love. Sing. Laugh. Look at every BTS post there is. Savor every bit of this life. Be kind.

Comedian Atak also mourned over the passing of Jonas, whom he had known even before the establishment of It’s Showtime.
@dabtecp also shared that in person, Jonas can always be noticed because of his stylish OOTDs.
You'll never miss Jonas when he's around. So nice, so accommodating, and so lively, both his personality and his bonggacious outfits. T'yak na mapapansin mo sya dahil kundi may sequins ang damit, naka-boots o may feather ang cap. Rampa, Jonas! RIP https://t.co/qGrD1oO8Uu
