Mr. Koh Cheng Kiat nee Madam Lim Keok Neo passed away at the age of 71 on 3 July 1939. The names of her children are;
Sons: Koh Soon Yee, Koh Soon Huat, Koh Soon Poh, Koh Soon Lin
Daughter: Koh Tan Neo.
I actually wrote about her before and took a number of photos over the years of her tomb. See below on how this area transform in the few short years. In my recent visit in July 2025, i was shocked by the intensive damaged cause by a fig tree that grew out of the altar table. In another 3-5 years if nothing is done, this tomb will likely no longer be visible.

Madam Lim Keok Neo tomb (2019-2021)
The jungle in Bukit Brown will always make a comeback due to the nature of the climate we live in. However fig trees are the number 1 "killers" of tombs as you can see below how this fig tree in just 4 years cause major irreversible damage to this tomb and this i have seen with my own eyes on many tombs.
