16 Indonesian Artists Who Passed Away in 2025 from Music Legends to Famous Comedians
The year 2025 became a year of mourning, with 15 Indonesian artists passing away due to illness and tragic incidents.
Kapanlagi.com - The sudden departure of Gary Iskak due to a single-vehicle accident last Saturday left a sorrowful story for the family he left behind. His wife, Richa Novisha, revealed that there were last messages that seemed to be a premonition before her husband passed away.
Although Richa herself admitted that she did not feel any special premonition, Gary's attitude towards their children, Adilla and Taqiya, felt different than usual. There were farewell words spoken by the 51-year-old actor.
"If there was a premonition... actually, there wasn't any. It was just more about the kids. He said things like, 'Dad is saying goodbye for now,' just like that. Then he gave gifts for the kids too. As for me, maybe it was just a hug when he was about to leave, that was about it," Richa revealed at her home in Cirendeu, South Tangerang, on Monday (1/12/2025).

Now, Gary's heirlooms have become a source of comfort for his children. Even the youngest, Taqiya, often fights with her older sister to wear their father's favorite sweater.

"The kids are also wearing his things. That sweater... Taqiya (the child) is very happy to wear it, even though it has already been worn by her sister, Dilla. So they fight over it, 'I want to wear that one,' the late father's favorite sweater is always worn by her," Richa said with teary eyes.
