Lucio “Bong” Tan, Jr., son and namesake of taipan Lucio Tan Sr., passed away at the age of 53, two days after he collapsed during a basketball game.

His sister Vivienne K. Tan confirmed in a statement on Monday the passing of Tan Jr., who assumed the top position in PAL Holdings recently.

“His untimely passing leaves a big void in our hearts and our Group’s management team which would be very hard to fill,” she said.

“Our family continues to request everyone to respect our wish for privacy as we go through this very difficult time,” Vivienne added.

On Saturday, Tan Jr. was taken to a hospitalize after he collapsed during a basketball game in Mandaluyong City.
