Acop eulogies deliveredMANILA, Philippines — Speaker Faustino Dy III led yesterday’s eulogies for the late Antipolo congressman Romeo Acop, who died of a heart attack before Christmas. “We feel this loss deeply, not just because we lost a colleague, but because we lost a friend, a brother and a man who gave his whole heart to public service. Today, we gather as one House, one family, united in both grief and gratitude,” Dy said. Among those who delivered eulogies were Deputy Speaker Ronnie Puno, former Surigao del Norte congressman Robert Ace Barbers, Manila Rep. Benny Abante and former Pangasinan lawmaker Leopoldo Bataoil.
