Courtesy of Yahoo OMG here are more of Steph Ayson's Eulogy for AJ:

"I want to be a teacher, a lawyer, and suddenly a doctor. I want to be able to write well, to sing well, and to dance well. All of those changed except one. I knew I want to marry a guy. And his name was AJ Perez."

"I was a silly girl, writing our names beside each other. I was scribbling hearts and playing Flames and I would wake up every Saturday just to watch "About Your Love." I would sit in front of the TV and watch ASAP. I was a fan and I would like to think I was the biggest fan he had."

"Cheesy, but that's AJ. Cheesy, sweet, sincere. He wanted to promise me the world, but I asked him not to. Because I was too afraid to hurt him, but he promised anyway, and he kept each one of them. He asked for my full trust. I admitted I was having a difficulty, but showed me that he knows what trust means and he'll never do anything to break that."

"He told me that even if I don't say 'I love you' back away or show him sweetness just like he would, his exact words were, 'I would wait a lifetime.'"

"He made me so happy, and even to his last day, he would talk to me and tell me that 'I want you always to be happy. I don't want you sad. I want you to smile a lot. You know why? Because I love you.' And I know as the days go by it will be very difficult but AJ would say he'd want us to be happy. That's the way he lived. He was happy."

"To my baby, you'll always be in my heart. Thank you for making my dreams come true. I'll take care of your family for you. And I'll love the way you loved me."

When deceased young actor AJ Perez got his first acting job in "Star Magic Presents: All About A Girl" in 2006, he was immediately paired with actress Lauren Young. They worked in a series of TV projects together as a loveteam after that, which spanned for around 3 years.

“Sobrang maganda siya. “Sabay po kaming ini-launch ni Lauren sa Star Magic Batch 13. We really didn’t talk that much before kasi nagsisimula pa lang kami although we are friends but after two years, she’s my best friend in the show. Sa mga babae, siya ang pinaka-close sa akin.” AJ said in an interview a few years back.

“She’s very simple. Unlike other girls, simple lang siya manamit. Plus we have the same interests. We like the same music. We both like the foreign band Fall Out Boy. ‘Yung gusto kong jacket, gusto rin niya even if panlalaki. We have many things in common,” AJ added.

Having all those good memories with the late actor, there's no wonder why Lauren was among those who got devastated when the news about AJ Perez untimely and tragic demise broke. On her Twitter account, Lauren shared that AJ was more than a loveteam to her. He was also her friend and brother, as well.

"I'm going to miss you so much. My loveteam, my friend, my brother. All I know is you're in a better place now and I won't question that," Lauren tweeted.

"Aj. You were like a brother to me. You'll always be in my heart. May you rest in peace," the actress added.

Noypi's Notes:

RIP again, AJ and condolence to your family, friends and fans.

I like how Sam sang the song, by the way. It was really good. I guess he could record it one of these days.

Meanwhile here's the lyrics of Michael Jackson's "Gone Too Soon"

Gone Too Soon - Michael Jackson Lyrics

Like a comet
Blazing 'cross the evening sky
Gone too soon

Like a rainbow
Fading in the twinkling of an eye
Gone too soon

Shiny and sparkly
And splendidly bright
Here one day
Gone one night

Like the loss of sunlight
On a cloudy afternoon
Gone too soon

Like a castle
Built upon a sandy beach
Gone too soon

Like a perfect flower
That is just beyond your reach
Gone too soon

Born to amuse, to inspire, to delight
Here one day
Gone one night

Like a sunset
Dying with the rising of the moon
Gone too soon
Gone too soon

Fatima Soriano, the choice recipient of AJ Perez' cornea | Know more about the 'Miracle Kid'

The family of the late young actor AJ Perez has decided to donate the cornea of the actor's eyes to blind singer Fatima Soriano who is also known as the "Miracle Kid".

Fatima Soriano was recently featured on Boy Abunda's "The Bottomline". Her life story has also been shown on "Maala Mo Kaya."

Know more about Fatima Soriano through this biography posted on her website, fatimasoriano.com:

Fatima Soriano

Ma. Fatima Victa Soriano, a little angel was born on June 12, 1993, and was named after our Virgin Mary of Fatima. She resides Tabon 3, Kawit, Cavite but now migrated to Union City, USA with her family. She was born blind and was diagnosed with kidney failure, end-stage and used to have dialysis every four hours, five times a day for ten months.

It was on July, 2003 when she called up in a radio program of Fr. Jerry Orbos, SVD, in ZNN Veritas, thereby started touching inspiring lives of people. Since then, the public had known her to be "Fatima, the little angel." Her enriching life was featured in "Maalala Mo Kaya!" Likewise, she appeared in number of television shows and TV Masses.

With God's grace, she has had a successful kidney transplant last February 28, 2004. Fatima, through her words, and now through her songs reminds us to be hopeful and to be joyful inspite of sufferings. She also reminds us to go back to our hearts, to go back to the Lord and to the Blessed Mother and find peace, and become instruments of peace.

Last year, Fatima's family decided to migrate to Union City USA, continuing to share inspirations, telling us that with God nothing is impossible if we only trust Him, and reminding us not to lose hope... as she always says... "Habang may buhay may pag-asa."

At present, her family is back here in the Philippines. Fatima Soriano recorded her latest album and was launched at her concert last October 10, 2009 at Meralco Theater, Pasig City. The concert was entitled, "A New Beginning" Fatima Soriano and The Oasis of Love Praise Ministry with speciali guests Christopher De Leon, Giselle Sanchez, Fr. Jerry Orbos, SVD, Fr. Erick Santos, Bro. Jun "Dr Love" Banaag, OP., Prayboyz and K5, directed by Adrian Panganiban. Her album "Journey to the Heart" is now available in selected record stores nationwide in record selling websites.

Latest reports say Soriano still has to check with her doctors. She said she had received the same offers before but her doctors disapproved the idea based on the past tests done to her.

“Kasi ‘yung problem is ‘yung retina ko and sa past studies, may takot sila na baka ‘pag ginalaw mas lalong lumala 'yung mata ko over all,” Soriano told the Manila Bulletin.

Rico Yan and AJ Perez' shocking similarities

Some people had always noticed the resemblance of AJ Perez's features to that of Rico Yan's. Someone even took a photo of AJ Perez while posing beside the framed picture of Rico displayed in the halls of the ABS-CBN building. Check it out below:

Acting-wise, it seemed like Star Magic head Johnny Manahan found AJ to follow Rico's footsteps. He reportedly said, “Given the chance, he can be another Rico Yan.”

However, nobody ever expected that AJ would have the same fate as Rico - to die at an early age in the peak of his career in showbiz. Also, people can't help to talk about these similarities:

*They were both ABS-CBN homegrown talents.
*They were among the few in showbiz to be known for their "baby face".
*They were both La Sallitas.
*They were young when they died.
*They both died in a Holy Week.
*They were both asleep when they died.
*Their wakes were both held at La Salle Greenhills.
*As Rico, AJ will also be laid to rest at Manila Memorial Park.

Rico Yan died of Acute Hemorrhagic Pancreatitis on March 29, 2002 in Palawan. He was 27.

Meanwhile, AJ Perez passed away at age 18 yesterday, April 17, 2011 in a vehicular accident.
