Mario Dumaual, veteran showbiz reporter, patay sa edad na 64
MANILA, Philippines — Binawian na ng buhay ang beteranong ABS-CBN entertainment reporter na si Mario Dumauwal matapos magkaroon ng komplikasyon kaugnay ng atake sa puso.
Hunyo lang nang maibalitang nasa "critical care" si Mario buhat ng isang heart attack, dahilan para humingi ang kanyang pamilya ng panalangin sa publiko.
"We are devastated to announce the passing of Mario Dumaual — Papa to his wife Cherie and children Luigi, Miguel, Maxine, William, and Thessa; Wowo to his grandchildren Sky, Alonzoe, and Tali; and Yayo to his siblings," sabi sa FB page ni Dumaual ngayong Miyerkules.
"Mario, who would have turned 65 on July 31, died at 8:01 a.m. on Wednesday, July 5 due to septic shock. He had been battling a severe fungal infection, a complication during his recovery from a heart attack. He was confined for a month at the Philippine Heart Center."
Bago bawian ng buhay, ilang beses na raw sinabi ni Mario na nais niyang umuwi ng bahay para makasama ang pamilya ngunit sadyang napigilan daw ng impeksyon ang kanyang katawan sa paggaling.
Nagpaabot na ng pakikiramay ang ilan sa mga kasamahan niya sa entertainment industry, kabilang na ang kolumnistang si Jobert Sucaldito, TV host at Itchyworms member na si Jugs Jugueta at singer na si Jed Madela.
Rest in peace, Sir Mario Dumaual. ???????????????????????? You we’re always present in all my career milestones. Rest now…

You were always kind to me.
Pahinga na po. ????????????
"What comforts us is he knew that we were always with him, waiting for him, and that home was wherever he felt our love. We also made it a point to let him know how loved he was by his friends in the industry and even kind strangers who have been offering prayers and help for his recovery," patuloy pa ng pamilya Dumaual.
"Papa was our rock, we depended much on him. But he also nurtured us to become strong and able and to be the best version of ourselves. Beyond us his family, we’d like to think he also left a legacy in entertainment journalism. He made us proud as Mario Dumaual, the reporter, but ultimately more so as a devoted husband, father, ang granddad."
Magbabahagi naman daw ang kanilang pamilya ng mga detalye kaugnay ng burol sa mga susunod na araw.
