(VP Leni Robredo/Facebook) Jesse, who died in a plane crash in August 2012, served under the Aquino administration, and always had good things to say about the late ex-president, the vice president said. Robredo recalled Aquino was very particular about honoring her husband in his death. “During the first day of Jesse’s wake in Naga, the Malacañang people who were in Naga were scrambling to find a big Philippine flag in all the stores in Naga. They said PNoy saw the TV coverage and he didn’t like the flag draped on the coffin because it was too small,” she said in a Facebook post.
