DAVAO CITY – National athlete Alexcel “Didat” Dargantes had joined her creator on Feb. 13 this year in Baguio City. She was 24.
Dargantes, a member of the Philippine amateur boxing team in 2015, is from General Santos City.
Her friends are now making a “Pastil for Cause” to raise PHP97,00 to bring back her body to General Santos City.
“Rest in peace, my friend. I can't believe you carried this on your own. Condolences to the family,” said Criz Sander Laurente, a former teammate of Dargantes.
National player Nesthy Petecio, on the other hand, is asking for help to bring back the remains of Dargantes to GenSan.
“Even just a little value,” said Petecio.
Dargantes had not been seen for eight years by her family, according to Petecio.
Her remains lie in state at the Cosmopolitan-SF Memorial Chapel in KM. 5, Marcos Highway, Sto. Tomas Proper, Baguio City. (PNA)
