When misfortune strikes, it attacks the most in actress Bing Pimentel’s persona.
It’s no reel pain but real grief when two of her beloved sisters-in-law recently died.

Cherie, everyone knows, was an award-winning actress.
Meanwhile, Bing’s sis-in-law Rose graduated Medicine from the Far Eastern University (FEU) and St. Theresa’s College in Quezon City in her grade and high schools. According to Tina Pimentel-Boom, her mom
“loved to serve the people and the company of dogs and above all she was a selfless mother.”
Dr. Villanueva-Pimentel was the former Municipal Health Doctor of Daet.
“Ate Rose has a son named Moki who is a nurse residing in the US with his wife while Tina has a daughter named Bella,” informed Bing.
In her Facebook wall, the mother of Sid Lucero and Max Eigenmann noted:
