Madam Lim Mui Keng (Bukit Brown)

When i have time, i revisit the Bukit Brown Documentation Website which documents tombs which are affected by the highway and no longer exist and reminisce on who they were and what were their stories, knowing that many remain undocumented despite efforts and in this case, i may not have the photo of this tomb. 

One of the tombs i revisited was the tomb of Madam Lim Mui Keng, beloved wife of Dr. Chee Set Chew. 

Madam Lim Mui Keng , wife of Dr. S.C. Chee passed away at the age of 30 at 94-1, Kampong Java Road on 4 June 1928. She leaves behind her husband and 3 sons. 
I believe her sons should be Chee Yew Chew, Chee Chwee Hoon and Chee Kong Hwa.
