Tan Teng Wee passed away at the age of 28 at his residence, No. 39 Everton Road on 11 December 1927. He is the second son of the late Mr. Tan Chin Seng and brother of Tan Teng Leong. He leaves behind a mother, sister and brother. On his tomb it states that Mr Tan Teng Leong (name partially covered by fern) is the brother of Mr. Tan Teng Wee. This corresponds with the legal advertisement put up by Mr. Tan Teng Leong to inform creditors to claim against the Estate of the late Tan Teng Wee.
