Dear members,
It is with a heavy heart that I would like to inform you that Mervyn Jui Meng Tan, our group founder has passed away this morning. Although he had been plagued with many ailments, this is very sudden. My co admin Sriram and I had been in constant contact with him through messaging and he had not shown any signs of distress. The cause of death is not known at this point in time. Mervyn had collapsed this morning and doctors weren't able to revive him.
We are shocked and saddened by Mervyn's passing. The admin team of the group would like to express our condolences to his wife and family.
The wake is on Tuesday and the funeral will be on Wednesday. There will be a church service on Tuesday evening. If you like more information on the wake, you can PM me for more information.

His passing was unexpected and sudden. His last Facebook post on Sunday morning at 5 a.m. was about some games (Texas Holdem Poker) which he just won. He was 53.
