MANILA -- Fans of the late actor Rico Yan continue to pay their respects at his tomb even 22 years after his passing. 

Two devoted fans, Geraline Abelle and Lory Caballero, recently visited Yan's grave in an emotional tribute to their idol.

Both Abelle and Caballero, who are originally from Mindanao but currently working in Laguna, expressed their deep admiration for Yan. 

"Fan na fan talaga kami ni Rico Yan even before. Nagka-chance lang kami makapunta,” Abelle said.

The two fans explained that they have been loyal followers of Yan even before his tomb became a popular destination for young fans.

"Kahit hindi pa siya nag-viral -- kasi bumalik 'di ba sa Facebook and TikTok -- talagang fan na kami. Hindi lang dahil nakisabay kami,” Abelle clarified. 

She revealed that she and her friend would often dream about Yan after watching his old films, including the classic "Dahil Mahal Na Mahal Kita," which Abelle claimed to have seen more than 20 times. 

"Napapanood ko na talaga 'yung movies niya. Tapos 'yung mama ko fan din talaga ni Rico Yan. 'Yung mga movies niya lagi talaga namin pinapanood halos every night. Napapanaginipan na nga namin.”
