Dearest Christine, tears are in my eyes as I remember your wonderful Daniel. He was always ready with a word of encouragement when he greets us along the church aisle, after our Robert Wong musical practice, and worship ministry meetings. Daniel is such a good listener. Such a lovely and thoughtful friend. I always absolutely LOVE his choice of songs when he leads worship. Especially the hymns. I have the privilege of being one of the support singers for him once or twice a year. I loved it thoroughly. Dearest Christine, I miss you! I remember you always complain that Daniel looks like he is still in Uni, while we are already Moms. LOL. You guys are blessed. Praying for peace for you and joy beyond understanding. Until we see Daniel again with our Savior Jesus. Hugs and hugs and hugs! Henny - (Hendra sent his love and care, too!)

Christlikeness in 'dorky' glasses -- that's my memory of Daniel. Intensely in love with God, every patient with everyone around him. Daniel, thank you for the great memories of trying to run a DG with like a million young kids milling around our knees. You will be sorely, sorely missed, but, as Christine said, we will see you again :)

I have little interaction with Brother Daniel but two images of him have stuck in my mind these past two weeks where I think of him once in a while. Firstly, the image of him listening intently to Ps Loli's advice or instruction (I can't remember clearly) during a worship rehearsal. This was many years ago. As I sat at the piano watching the scene, I thought to myself, what an earnest and humble worship leader who listens and agrees with the Worship Director (Ps Loli) readily! I still remember now, how he walked over to check a few details with me to make sure he is clear about the musical aspects. There was a song which was challenging to start, I assured him the choir would know when to come in and he could just listen for us and join in. He smiled and seemed relieved. Secondly, the image of him looking up and smiling or waving at us whenever choir members stream into the 2nd level hall after the first service. Obviously, he looks up to look for his wife first ;) but I noticed he would always look out for other familiar faces to smile or wave to them. Whenever I see his pleasant expression, I always think, what a supportive spouse; it can be tiring to wait for the spouse to serve in two services but he looks like he doesn't mind at all! When we resume choir presentations on Sundays and I walk into the hall, I'm going to miss this precious brother's smile. May the Lord continue to strengthen and comfort Sister Christine, Elizabeth and Emmanuel.

2020-09-28 17:08:02 View / Comment (0)I met Daniel on a few occasions in the work place (as both of us work in related organisations) and he always greet me with a gentle and warm smile. Although our conversations were brief, he would show concern on how I am coping at home, and always asked if I had any prayer request. We had more extended conversation in 2016, when Daniel was leading the Mission Comm. Daniel is a humble leader who rolls up his sleeve and gets himself involved in the details. Before our SQ trips, he would ask me for specific trip details and consolidate prayer requests from the team. Administrative procedures like the submission of personal details to MFA e-Register and claims are tasks that I dreaded and left to last minute, and Daniel will always come to my rescue. He took the effort to gather our personal details through e-Form and submitted on our behalf. After the trip, he eased our effort by filling up the claim forms for us. You can imagine the challenges involved as some of the receipts were either crumpled or the Chinese words were difficult to decipher. Although he was new to the Mission Committee at that time, Daniel made an effort to understand the challenges faced by the team and co-workers in SQ. He was especially concerned when we had issues with the local Authorities 2 years ago. After the trip he took time to check with me on the well-beings of the young adults who had gone for the trip, so as to make sure that they were not traumatized by the event. These are the things that Daniel did quietly behind the scene. Daniel was among the pioneers who was actively involved in Renggit ministry, and he faithfully served with the ministry for almost 10 years. His heart continues to be with the ministry even though he took a break in 2015. If we bumped into each other at the Cozy Corner on Sunday, he would ask about the church in Renggit, and his eyes literally lit up whenever I showed him the photos of the kids from my handphone. He marveled at how much they had grown and gave thanks that many continue to keep their faith despite challenges. Here is a video montage that was created 3 years ago, in appreciation of the Renggit ministry. Many of us have fond memories of working with Daniel in this ministry. Let me dedicate this video to Christine and the family, as we cherish the wonderful memories of Daniel and the seeds that we had sown together.

This is posted by Lai Chun... I remember Daniel as a godly man, humble, sincere, friendly, warm, gentle, soft-spoken, well-mannered and a fine gentleman. He & Christine have no airs, no hypocrisy. They were a perfect match for each other - a godly man with a godly woman. The children are well brought up in godly ways. Daniel & Christine made me feel comfortable in their company. Whenever Daniel led worship, I knew I would have a good, Spirit-filled worship on that Sunday. Daniel was so nice to extend fellowship to me while I was waiting for a bus to return home at Queensway one Sunday years ago when I had not been long in True Way. He recognised me as someone from True Way and approached me to extend his fellowship. I was touched by his gesture. Even though it was a brief conversation, I could sense that he was a sincere and warm person. I was glad to see Daniel standing for election as a deacon and I voted wholeheartedly for him without any doubt of his calling. I also saw in him someone with Spirit-filled qualities who could be one of our church's Elders in the future and I was looking forward to that day. I always feel the need for more men to serve in the U12 ministry and my heart was filled with joy to see Daniel getting involved in U12. Though Daniel's sojourn on earth was brief, he had lived a very purposeful life, making the most of his life and every opportunity given to him to serve God and His people. He was a quiet man but active in service. He had accomplished the tasks and completed the race which God had set before him. I imagine Daniel walking street of gold now and worshipping God with the angels and all the heavenly beings in heaven with God the Father saying to him, "Well done, good & faithful servant." I will miss Daniel's presence in church.

Dear Daniel, You left for glory land but I am still longing to talk to you about missions budget. We got closer with each other after you assumed the Chair of Missions Com. I respect you from my hearts in the way you desire to balance dispensing resources for God’s work, exercising stewardship and diligence in managing the largest of all our ministry budgets. Your budgets are well documented, clear and robustly justified. You epitomised that of a good and faithful servant, in our eyes. You made time and responded spontaneously to pray over the phone each time we had to make challenging decisions about the budget; when we can’t find time to meet or when I am overseas. I certainly had a memorable dinner experience with you last year as we tried to connect, beyond committee-type work. As we begun to share our background, family challenges and God’s faithful hand in our lives, you talked easily. This laid the foundation for further chats. It was a delightful moment when you called out to me and my wife when we were walking down King Albert MRT station and you were in the coveted Standard Chartered Bank Marathon vest running back to your home. For you to be able to spot our masked up faces, whilst running, speaks volumes about the state of your physical fitness – I exclaimed, then. Your home-calling is unexpected. When we meet again in Glory land, I am not sure if we will still be doing budgets but certainly I look forward to continue deepening our fellowship and lifting our hands together, in praise of our Sovereign God. Till we meet again, Teoh Khoon

Thank you with fond memories of our times and sharing on boat and car trips to/fro, walking the streets of Sungei Rengit Town and sharing with people in town and at Church. Here on 25 Dec 2009, we have Christmas celebration together in Rengit Church.

On 15 Jun 2007, we (Rengit Ministry) share and pray before you leave for your overseas study. We wait and look forward to your return and was greatly blessed again when you re-joined Rengit Ministry.

Daniel and I served in the Renggit ministry. Although we were in different teams, sometimes we went in to Renggit together. The problem was, Daniel was a quiet guy, and so am I. So we did not talked much to one another. However, when we talked, both in the Renggit ministry and later when he was Mission Committee Chair and I was the Church Treasurer, he was always soft spoken, gentle and very respectful. That was the kind of person Daniel was. But one thing I will always remember him is this, as far as I can remember, he was the only person who has ever gotten a 100% support in a minister, elder or deacon election in our church history. No one has ever achieved this before him or after. I believe this said it all about him. Well done, Daniel! Till we meet again.

I first met Daniel at our church camp (Sabana Cove) in 2005. When we were out for an activity, he caught my attention when I saw him disciplining Elizabeth (who was then probably about 2) at a side. He was firm in his voice (not even loud) and looked at her sternly (actually I thought that look was quite frightening). And he sure impressed me as a dad! Before Covid, where we still met to worship in Church, I would always see him in the church office after service sorting out claims for Missions Comm. And this happened almost every week without fail. What a faithful and diligent labourer! And ever since he became a deacon of Missions Comm, he would always be at the airport to send the Mission trippers off (as we always sent KS or Gracia). I was impressed cos he does not drive, and Changi Airport is far east whereas he lived in Bukit Timah and his workplace was at Buona Vista. What commitment! On various occasions, I would meet him at wakes, and I’d have the opportunity to talk to him. Daniel although seen as quiet would never fail to engage in meaningful conversations whether about church ministries or about children. And I really appreciated those times where I got to know him better. He was definitely a person with depth and not just a “Hi and bye!” person. I’ll miss seeing Daniel in the church office when covid is over and church is opened once again. I’ll miss seeing him at the airport when I next go to send one of my family members on a mission trip. I’ll miss meeting him at wakes when we have had meaningful conversations. But one thing I’m sure, that I’ll see Daniel again.

Christmas caroling at Rengit in Dec 2013. The harvest is plentiful but the laborers are few. Remembering Daniel as a faithful laborer in the missions field.

I remember Daniel sharing with me one thing when our family moved to their neighbourhood a few years ago and that is the best local coffee. He texted me with the name with a link to “Four Squares”. I appreciated such gesture of his thoughtfulness. I still have it in my WhatsApp. As a fellow DGL I remember our conversations we had whenever we go home after the DGL quarterly meetings. I will give him a lift and he will alight at the Esso petrol kiosk near his home. These are the time we get to talk as we hardly do after worship services. We will share about our family, work and ministries. I always enjoy these journeys home as they are personal and it’s just the two of us. I will miss our conversations. We will continue when we see each other. Till we meet again.... Rest in His Presence.

Brother Daniel, you will be missed dearly and never forgotten. Your love, kindness, patience and ever smiling face will stay deep in my heart. Thank you for all the years of leading and guiding the DG. Rest assured that the DG will always be there for your family. Good bye for now.

Always so gentle. Always so humble. Thanks for leading our DG for so many years, faithfully sharing God's words with us. Will always remember the times we spent together : tracting in the neighbourhood, our DG trip to Rengit, hunting for seafood lunch during our church camp in 2018, numerous DG meetings, etc. Have a good rest, till we meet again.

See Daniel in his uniform which Christine said he faithfully wore each time he led in worship. He wanted it to be simple, nothing fanciful, so that peoples' attention was not drawn to him but God. It's such a small world. My cousin Adrian visited True Way that Sunday when I was the preacher and Daniel the worship leader. Adrian and Daniel were army mates. Naturally we took a picture together.

Dear Daniel, today (2025 10th Jan) as I was exploring and learning more about GraphRAG and how how it is close to the Knowledge Graphs we built together in Dentsu GDIC, I wanted to add you on LinkedIn and discuss. Your LinkedIn Profile page was in memory of you, and I was led here to leave a message. Today it has been raining non-stop since morning till evening - a sad day for me indeed. I did not realize you had passed in 2020, just 1 year or less since we left GDIC. It is a pity that we can no longer discuss Graphs together. Thank you for trusting me in the KG implementation for INFINITY although back then I had not worked on graphs at all before, you trusted in my potential and sent me a book on graphs. Till today, the parallel KG construction in K8s of Project INFINITY remains my most challenging technical achievement, and has opened many doors and been mentioned by me many times in my job interviews over the years. Thank you for believing in my potential, trusting in my work ethic (no micromanagement). I hope that GraphRAG concepts and Knowledge Graphs continue their upward trajectory in the world as all of us in GDIC know how fond you are of Knowledge Graphs. Rest in Peace and best wishes to your family ~
