Dolphy's family reunited in Vegas


LAS VEGAS -- A year after the passing of Philippine comedy king Dolphy, his children, along with the actor's long-time partner Zsa Zsa Padilla, were reunited once again. This time, in one of Pidol's favorite destination: the entertainment capital of the world.

"Love naman niya ang Vegas talaga. Masaya, memorable. Marami syempreng memories. The fact na nadito 'yung family ko gustong-gusto niya 'yung mga hotels kasi 24 hours bukas ang Vegas," Padilla saod.

Dolphy's son Eric Quizon said that although they see each other in Manila, "it's very rare that we see our brothers in Burbank and New Jersey na magkakasama-sama kami together."

Daughter Zia Quizon added: "We are spending a lot of time sa Padilla side namin dito sa Las Vegas so it's nice to see the Quizon din."

Padilla said Las Vegas was home to Dolphy. "Not only because of the neon lights but the best of the best in the world in terms of stage shows and the international far-fame notable restaurants and buffets are all Sin City," she said.

But the singer admitted that she also feels lonely when thinking about the placed they used to frequent in the Nevada city.

"Hindi ako pumupunta sa mga lugar na talagang favorite niya nakakalungkot eh," said.

Epi Quizon noted that Christmas 2012 was the first Christmas they spent without their father.

"Ngayong Christmas na ito, first Christmas ito na bumalik ang daddy ko. Virtual na nga lang so magkakasama ulit kami," he said.

When Padilla is asked about Dolphy's National Artist recognition, she said, "Nakaka proud naman pero sana nga mangyari maghintay na lang kami.”

Padilla, along with her two daughters Nicole and Zia, will be spending their holidays in Vegas, while the rest of the Quizon brothers will be spending it with their respective families in the US.
