Fr Jett Villarin says mass here in a full, physically distanced, Church of the Gesù. Fr Villarin shares his last conversations with PNoy which was about the latter's medical operations. @rapplerdotcom

Fr Jett shares they used to ask former Deped Sec Bro Armin Luistro why he would serve PNoy's cabinet. Luistro said PNoy would always ask how their decision would affect the poor. Fr Jett says, citing Bro Armin: "kung yan ang tanong ng pinuno, paano kang hindi maglilingkod?"

Fr Jett says PNoy's last text to him was about how broken hearts are hard to endure but with their grade school hamburger, there's hope. Fr Jett: Noy alam ko sa langit gutom ka pa rin at broken hearted ka pa rin para sa amin.

Musicians Moira dela Torre and Jason Hernandez; couple Angel Locsin and Neil Arce are seen inside the Church of the Gesù

Abp Soc Villegas will preside mass at the Church of the Gesu tomorrow, Saturday, 10am, before going to the Manila Memorial Park. Those who want to pay their last respects are asked to observe physical distancing as the convoy passes through C5 to SLEX.

The line is briefly held as mass is ongoing. Public viewing will resume in a while until 8pm for a mass c/o PNoy's cabinet members.

Moira is singing her song "Paubaya," but which she rewrote for PNoy.

Jaya will sing a song that Kris says was PNoy's favorite, and which the former president spent 3 hours researching.

The song that Jaya will sing is Minsan ang minahal ay ako, originally by Celeste Legaspi.

Kris says PNoy loved this Celeste Legaspi song so much, that he listened to it again and again. The lyrics goes: "Ano na lang yung isang sandali na makatikim ng pagmamahal? Matapos ang luhang ipinagpalit?"

Kris: It was his favorite song, and it speaks so much about him - 'ano man lang ang konting pasakit kung katumbas ang pagmamahal.' Now we understand, that there was a time you all had chosen and gave him the greatest honor anybody could be given.

Moira will sing Paubaya again, which she rewrote in 10 minutes to fit PNoy. Moira will sing it again because Kris wanted the lyrics to be flashed on the screen.

Paubaya lyrics now go: Saan nagkulang ang aming pagmamahal, lahat ay binigay mapangiti ka lang? Bakit di ko nakitang nahihirapan ka na? Kami ang kasama, pero kailangan mo na siya.

There will be another short musical program tomorrow at the 10am mass. Kris doesn't say who will be singing and says "maybe I shouldn't say so you will look forward to it."

Kris: I would like to apologize sa mga taga Tarlac dahil hindi namin siya nadala. I will be there on Tuesday dahil alam kong may hinanda kayo para sa kanya.

Kris in tears: Pnoy was a true blooded Atenista. Now I understand why. Kahit nag away kayo sa RH, you were truly there for him when it truly mattered.
