Mrs. Chua Hong Hin nee Madam Tan Gim Poh

From the marble tomb of Tan Gim Poh, the names of her children engraved are as follows;

Daughters: Chua Eng Neo, Chua Bee Neo

Grandson: Chua Chuan Seng 

What is interesting also other than the fact marble stone is written in English, is the fact that the tomb mason made a very obvious mistake - they spelled Memory wrongly !
