REST IN PEACE
7 February 2026
I extend my heartfelt gratitude to all who have expressed their sympathies and prayers for the passing of my uncle, Benjamin R. Duterte. We are deeply thankful for your compassion and remembrance.
Tiyo Bong was one of the strengths beneath our wings during the 2025 national and local campaign planning and operations. His quiet leadership will be deeply missed as we look ahead to the 2028 elections. We take comfort in our faith, knowing that we now have a campaign manager in heaven securing the success of the Filipino people.
Before his passing, he expressed his wish that the wake and burial be limited to family and selected friends.
May God grant eternal rest for his soul.
