In his vlog titled “I lost my son Lloyd Cafe Cadena,” he recounted the shock he felt when he received a call from Lloyd’s older sister Suzette who delivered the news to him. “She told me, ‘Papa, wala na si Lloyd.’ Parang nawalan ako ng lakas nung sinabi ng anak ko sa Dubai, ‘Papa wala na si Lloyd.’ Nagulat ako na hindi ko maintindihan. Maybe two to three minutes or more, tulala ako. Napakasakit. Ang hirap tanggapin. Ang hirap tanggapin ng isang ama na mawalan ka ng anak. Sobrang hirap. Ginapang namin sila ng kanilang ina mula pa sila sa hirap. Kahit paano nakakain sila ng tatlong beses sa isang araw. Di bale kaming magulang na hindi kumakain para lang sa mga anak. Ako sanay na ako sa walang kain kain, makita ko lang mga anak ko na hindi nagugutom.”

In this difficult time, Lloyd’s father also requested his viewers to not pressure their family for all the details. He says, “Mga kabayan, huwag na kayo magtanong kung anong dahilan ng pagkamatay ni Lloyd. Manood na lang kayo ng YouTube, balita, mga news. Igalang niyo na lang yung privacy ng pamilya,” he said.

Jun also gave a short message for his son, who was one of the most well-loved YouTube personalities in the country. “Lloyd kung nasaan ka man ngayon, nawa’y masaya ka na. Nawa’y gabayan mo kami ng iyong mama at mga kapatid na makayanan namin ang mga pagsubok sa buhay. Nawa’y maka-move on kami,” he added.
