When we went to the chapel last Saturday night for the anticipated Holy Mass and we noticed there were more people than usual. Yun pala there was a wake. It was Eric Antonio’s, son of Mrs. Lydia Antonio, friend of my mother-in-law. Eric was a Tux member.
Tux is an-all male acapella group who became very popular in the 80s. They are still very much active, performing in the country and around the world. Other members are Popo Suanes, Carlo Bulahan, Dante Sibug, M. Silvestre, Jeric Mariano.

His death is so sudden. Eric suffered a massive heart attack while rehearsing. He was brought to the hospital but doctors failed to revive him. He was only 50.
