A tribute to ibanguy


Rentap or Ibanguy left us on the 2nd of May 2007 suddenly. This was one guy who never failed to leave a mark on the lives of the people he touched. Never without a smile on his face, Frankie J. Demang, his real name, was everyone's best friend. At least everyone hoped their best friend was more like him. Frankie reintroduced me to blogging and for that reason alone, I will go on blogging and keep his blog on my blogroll.

I was introduced to him on a weekend and realised I could relate to Frankie on almost all levels. An afficionado of good movies and a great musician, Frankie was passionate in the arts. At this moment, I am actually listening to a song he wrote called 'Twisted Fate'. How apt.

I AM NOT WITH YOU NOW
SOMEHOW FATE IS TWISTED
OUR LIFE IS NOT FATED
I AM NOT WITH YOU NOW
SOMEONE ELSE IS TAKING MY PLACE … TODAY
- Frankie

Leaving us at a young age, he will be missed greatly.
May his blog live on forever, may his compassion in others make us better people, may his music play on in our lives, may memories of him never leave us for there are many.
