Isang pangarap ko na sinukuan ko na dahil kontento na ako na may sapat na trabaho pero binigay mo pa rin Lord! Ikaw po pala ang hindi sumuko sa akin. Salamat po.”
McCoy also dedicated the achievement to his family, naming his parents and loved ones as the people who continue to motivate him in life and in his career.
“Mommy, Daddy, Shylla, Marcus, Ian and Felize para sa inyo to, kayo ang dahilan kaya ako nagpupursige sa buhay ngayon. Kahit anong mangyari kayo ang magiging inspirasyon ko sa industriyang ito. Mahal na mahal ko kayo.”
The actor went on to express his appreciation for everyone who contributed to the production of “In Thy Name,” emphasizing that the award was not an achievement he could claim alone.
“Isang gabi na hinding hindi ko makakalimutan para po sa akin at para sa pelikulang ‘In Thy Name’. Sa mga kasamahan ko dito sa pelikula, sila kuya Mon, kuya JC, Aya, Yves, Jerome, Polo at lahat pa ng cast. Kay direk Cesar Soriano salamat sa grabeng tiwala na binigay niyo sa akin.”
He likewise thanked Greatczar Production, recognizing the people who worked behind the scenes to bring the movie to life.
“Sa Greatczar Production maraming salamat sa inyo ate Ayette, Jai, Renz at Nader sa lahat ng sa likod ng camera nagpakahirap para sa pelikulang ito.”
McCoy also acknowledged Fr. Rhoel Gallardo and his family, expressing his belief that their guidance had been part of his journey throughout the film’s production.
“Fr Rhoel Gallardo thank you po alam kong ginabayan mo ko hanggang matapos ang pelikula at sa pamilya niyo po bahagi rin po kayo ng parangal na ito. Salamat po!”
The actor extended his congratulations to the other awardees and everyone involved in the 74th FAMAS Awards, while reiterating his gratitude for the recognition.
“Sa 74th Famas awards congrats din sa lahat ng naging bahagi nito at sa mga nanalo. Maraming maraming salamat po para sa recognition na ito hanggang sa buong pamilya ko nagpapasalamat po ako.”
Beyond his initial acceptance message, McCoy shared another post reflecting on what the award meant to him personally. He revealed that after winning, his first instinct was to go home and be with his family.
As he made his way back, he thought about his humble beginnings in Tondo and how different his life had become from the future he once imagined for himself.
“Pagtapos ko manalo gusto ko agad pumunta sa pamilya ko. Narealize ko habang papunta sa bahay namin, isang simpleng taga Tondo lang ako noon na nangarap na may marating sa buhay. Hindi ko naisip na maglalakad ako sa Tondo na may hawak na ganitong parangal, dahil hangad ko lang makapagtapos ng pag aaral.”
McCoy explained that his original dream had simply been to finish his education. He never expected that his journey would lead him to a career in show business and eventually to a major acting award.
“Yun pala iba ang plano ng Diyos, hindi diploma mauuwi ko kundi trophy. Ilan taon ko rin tong hinangad at nawawalan na ng pag asa pero binigay pa rin ng Diyos.”
The actor concluded his reflection by encouraging people to persevere even when their ambitions seem distant or difficult to achieve.
“Basta wag lang tayo agad susuko lalo sa pangarap natin lagi natin isipin kung para saan at para kanino tong ginagawa natin lalong lalo na wag makalimutan ang nasa itaas.”
For McCoy, the Best Actor trophy represented more than professional recognition. It was also a reminder of how far he had come from his beginnings in Tondo and how a dream he once considered unattainable eventually became a reality.
