Jayley Woo

"To the you I love the most.

August 24 is your birthday, January 4 is our special day, and on January 24, you left without a word, leaving only your cold, hardened hand behind. How is it such a coincidence that my favourite number is 4? Why did you heartlessly leave me behind? How is it that you could bear to leave this world? Why did you do this to me?

I am not blessed enough to be your wife in this life. We must get married in the next. I love you. I really love you very much. Thank you for looking after me for the past few years. I'll always love you. May you rest in peace. Remember to visit me in my dreams more often, okay? Also, I'll never forgive you in this life. 

You'll always be a part of me, my man. 
We'll meet again in the next life, till death do us apart baby boy."

Hayley Woo

"December 27, 2018, thank you for celebrating my sister's birthday with her. Thank you for meticulously planning a day's activities. After dinner and a few glasses of drinks, (Jayley) fell asleep. This is the first time we had a heart-to-heart talk, and we talked about so much.

You told me that you were busy earning money and that you wanted to marry my sister when you were about 31. I am not blessed enough to be your sister-in-law in this life.

May you rest in peace. Visit Jayley in her dreams and tell her everything that you didn't have time to say.

You will be missed. Please Rest In Peace."

Xu Bin

"As a brother, you've done so much for me. I didn't have time to do anything for you, and you just left us like that. I'll miss you, my forever brother!"

Shane Pow

"I haven't had enough of our brotherhood in this life. Let's be brothers again in our next lives. I love you dai lo (big brother)."

Rebecca Lim

"You're a really great person. Even though we've never worked together, I'm blessed to have had you as a friend. I will remember and recall the wonderful moments we had while eating together. I'll miss you. Your brothers will make your wishes come true."

Zoe Tay

"My heart hurts and I can't bear (to say goodbye)... Rest in peace.

We've only worked together once and didn't have many scenes together. There was once when we were out for a shoot and I couldn't catch the bus back to the TV station, you offered me a ride even though it wasn't along the way. You said that it was a rare chance for you to have a chat with me.

You told me about the rebellious stage you went through and how your family didn't know what to do. After which, Dasmond Koh taught you and brought you onto the right path and you eventually joined his company.

From our talks, I found you very mature and sensible. You also did things meticulously and you were so grounded as a 25-year-old, which is why I liked you a lot.

You were serious about your work, acted well, had a good attitude, and everyone from the actors to the crew had nothing but good things to say about you. Dasmond taught you well, and I had thought that we'd have plenty of opportunities to work together in the years ahead.

This accident happened too suddenly, and I know that you've tried hard too. Rest in peace, Aloysius."

Alfred Sim

I worked with you on both the dramas that I was a part of, and you even shared some acting tips with me. I found out the news in the wee hours of the morning, and it all happened too quickly. I only hope that you rest in peace.

Dennis Chew

The memories we had filming. Goodbye forever Aloysius.

Sheila Sim

Life can be this unfair at times. You've suffered for the past few days, Aloysius. I... am in disbelief.

Felicia Chin

"Aloysius, I wished you knew what an amazing person and human being you are. Refusing any compliments or accolades to your name, how brilliant and loved you are. Thank you. Thank you for being a dear friend to many. Thank you for speaking to me when I was at my lowest a few years ago. My heart is so heavy but you know, I wish to see you in Heaven. You are a good son, friend, brother, person. Not many lived a life like yours. This is so sad...but thank you for being you. You are deeply loved and cherished dear Aloy. We all love you very very much."

Felicia Chin

Always remember.

Bonnie Loo

"I wasn't looking at my phone for a while but once I did, it was full of bad news. I haven't seen you for a long time, and it's been a while since we last met. You're just like an older brother. We only worked together once and we had a meal with everyone else. 

You were always like a big brother, encouraging me and supporting me in my acting. You'd give me encouragement and wanted me to believe that I could make it. I didn't expect that our next meeting would be like this (...) We'll miss you very, very much.

R.I.P"

Candyce Toh

"I always said to you, 'Why is it you again?' but what I really meant to say was that working with you so many times was the biggest blessing I've received. Thank you for always bringing light to everyone's lives. I'll always miss you. I'll see you again next time. #RIP"

Chantalle Ng

"Aloysius, let's meet again. Rest in peace."

Desmond Tan

"Brother, I could never keep up with you, and your style was always a mystery. Even in your last moments, you ran ahead of us and gave us an ending that we couldn't understand. I'll see you in our next lives. You will always be in our hearts, always.

P.S. Those sweet words you shared with me during Dreamcoder confirmed my philosophy in life. Thank you. Your legacy will be passed on to our next generations."

Jeremy Chan

Five years ago, when we were filming World At Your Feet, the (soccer) ball hit my eye. Your first reaction was different from everyone else's. You rushed over to ask if I was alright. At that time, I was really, really thankful to have you as a friend. I'm still unable to accept this reality. Aloy... Rest in peace. I'll return you the concern that you've shown me in our next lives.

Zheng Geping

"My dear boy u were so young when u first worked with me in Joys of Life.... I am very very sad.... U were so talented, energetic, so polite & well mannered.... I will always remember your sweet smile .... Rest In Peace dear Boy. (sic)"

Jeanette Aw

"I don’t believe this. Why do you have to go? You are like my big brother. Always there when I need you. I haven’t even done anything close to what you did for me. I’m gonna miss you so much."

May Phua

"Been feeling uneasy the whole night... Thanks for being a part of our lives my dear young man. I have only good memories of you and your professionalism. My heart goes out to Aloysius Pang's family...

Hong Ling

I really couldn't sleep last night. Life and death are so unpredictable. So close to each other. We exist moment to moment, never knowing who will be the next to leave the world.

Love knows no boundaries. While you are no longer physically with us, your spirit is always around us.

Rayson Tan

My heart still hurts and I'm very sad. I've acted as your older brother and your dad. Among the young actors that I know, you were one who was very humble, respected the older generation, very hardworking, understood acting, and an actor who expressed your character well. As what everyone is saying, you were that sensible and that great. We enjoyed a friendship that extended beyond the set, and we always had much to talk about when we met.

I miss the times that we filmed together, because there was much laughter and so many memories. You were very real, and when you saw me, you'd be the first to say hello. My heart really hurts. Aloy, I know you won't be able to hear what I say now, and it's only something that those who loved you will be able to know. We'll always miss you, think of you and love you. Rest in peace.

Richie Koh

"Tonight's sky belongs to you. You'll shine in the night sky. Remember this day. He is a national hero..."

Zong Zijie

"Today I lost a colleague, mentor, friend and brother. I lost a pair of listening ears, a source of advise and a person whom I trust. He was the first person I turned to when I was at the lowest point of my life. I wouldn't be where I am today without him, in fact no where close. Thank you for everything, all the advise and support. Just before this incident, I was still thinking how it's been [so] long since we sat down for a beer, it kind of kills me knowing that it will never happen again. Goodbye brother."

Timothee Yap

"Brother."

He Yingying

"Although we weren't close, but I'm thankful for all the care you showed me while we were filming together. I learned a lot from you. You've suffered. Rest in peace."

Seraph Sun

RIP. Thank you so much for the meaningful conversations and all your advice, although we have only acted in one show together we all really felt the familial bond. I will always keep close to heart our night of fun with Jesseca Liu and Bryan Wong in Pulau Ubin. Siblings forever.

Jacelyn Tay

RIP Aloysius. My heart hurts. May peace be with your family and loved ones... I've only met you briefly a few times during events. You were always wearing a gentle smile... It is heart-breaking that you have to leave the world this way and this early. Let this picture remind me (and all of us) that every single moment could be the last time we meet. 

Cherish one another, give a smile always and treasure each moment. Nothing lasts forever, but memories probably do.

Till we meet again in heaven...

Tong Bingyu

I couldn't sleep. I recited mantras so many times on the plane, and in my heart, I wished that this was all a dream. I hoped that when I landed, I'd find out that this was a joke that all of you were playing on me. In the end, news of you leaving was all that I saw when I looked at my phone.

Your intellect, modesty, kindness, manners, honesty and everything good about you will always be engraved in my heart. Rest in peace.
