To my surprise, Kapatid Frontman Karl Roy has already passed away due to complications after having difficulty in breathing. He was never been the same after his last bypass operation. The entire music industry is now mourning for the loss of one of the Philippines' premiere frontman.
On a personal level, he is also one one of my favorites (from the band P.O.T.) as his music was really inspirational to me. Most of his songs convey strong messages like the one I'm sharing at the end of this post (credits to youtube).
Below is a message from Kathryn Roy, Karl's sister.
It is with deepest sadness that I share the news of Karl's passing. He was called Home today at 1:01 a.m. Manila time (Tuesday, March 13th), surrounded by those who loved him most - mommy, Keith, Kevin, Krys, his daughter Arianna, and our cousin Jack (Roy-Duavit).
Please continue to pray for Karl. He brought so much joy to others but, unfortunately, did not have enough of it in this life. He's in a better place now, with Lolo Pepe, Lola Conching and Daddy.
Thank you for your kind words and your prayers.
God bless!
Kathryn
