MANILA — Internet personality Lloyd Cafe Cadena died Friday, according to an announcement made on his official Facebook page. He was 26.

“It is with a heavy heart and great sadness that we announce the untimely demise of our beloved brother Lloyd Cafe Cadena,” the post read. “May he be remembered for all the joy and laughter he shared with everyone. My family and I ask for your prayers, respect, and privacy during this time.”
