Madam Tan Keng Pin passed away on 4 May 2604 at the age of 24. For those unfamiliar, her tomb carries two different calendar eras / system. On the shoulder shows the Chinese Republic of calendar year which corresponds to 1944 while year 2604 beneath the altar table follows the Japanese koki calendar which translates to 1944. So this is consistent that Madam Tan Keng Pin life was cut short at 24 years old on 4 May 1944.
Listed on her tomb is 1 daughter.
