ILANG mga kasamahan sa show biz ang nagbigay ng tribute para sa namayapang aktres na si Cherie Gil, ang tinaguriang “La Primera Contravida.”
Isa rito si Matteo Guidicelli. Aniya: “Ciao Tita Cherie Gil. I will forever cherish the memories on and off set during Dolce Amore and Single Single. Thank you tita. Rest In Peace.”
Ayon kay Yasmien Kurdi: “Napakabait niyo ka-work… mabilis ang mga eksena natatapos at very professional. When I greet you laging “Hello Miss” lang dahil natatakot ako magkamali sa pronunciation ng “Cherie” haha! Maraming Salamat po sa alaalang nakatrabaho ko kayo. Isang malaking karangalan po. Mamimiss namin kayo! Rest in peace.”
Inalala naman ni ZsaZsa Padilla ang huling pagkikita nila ng kaibigan.
“Saddened to hear about your passing. The last time I worked with you, we were always seated beside each other- chatting away while waiting for our turn to work on our next scenes. You always had a way of getting in touch with me.
“I’ll never forget when you surprised me with a call and left a message on my machine. I was pregnant then with Zia and staying in Las Vegas while you were in NYC. I’ll never forget the quiet dinner we had with some (common) friends. As always, it was wonderful to be in your company.
“The last time I saw you was at Antonio’s in Tagaytay. We were happily waving at each other since I was seated at the lower level. You even texted me after! But most importantly, I’ll never forget how beautiful and vibrant you were when you celebrated your golden birthday! You danced the tango and I remember thinking- this woman can do anything she puts her heart into! You were always so passionate and full of life! That’s how I will always remember you, Cherie, my Gemini sister! I miss you, my beautiful friend. Until we meet again,” sabi ni ZsaZsa.
