One of the most beautiful pieces that Reuben composed, and was made into a very nice video. Dedicated to Reuben Lee, this video says it all.

For those of you who are into anime songs, you can download Reuben’s work here :-

The title of the song featured on the youtube is called, Medley From Naruto. A very beautiful piece. Soothing, relaxing and very emotionally displayed.

Reuben Kee – talented, inspiring and will always be remembered. His music will always touch those who discover.

Call for donations

Dear Netizens,

My name is Kai Hong, a close friend and dragon boat team-mate of the late Wei Cheng. I am sure by now, you have heard of the tragic accident in Cambodia 3 weeks ago.
http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/singaporelocalnews

I am honored to have had the opportunity to row with Wei Cheng in both SAFSA as well as the National Team. He was a dedicated paddler who worked hard to reach his goals. This eventually earned him a place in the National squad, despite his lack of prior experience in the sport.

While participating actively in dragonboat, Wei Cheng dedicated much of his remaining time to giving tuition in order to contribute to the family’s income. From a tender age, Wei Cheng and his brother, Wei You, have been raised single handedly by their mother, who is currently sourcing for a job with the help of relatives. Wei You recently re-took his ‘O’ Levels and is hoping to enter a local Polytechnic with his grades. He will be working part-time to bear some of the family’s financial burden, which his brother had so painstakingly bourne these few years.

I understand that most of you have probably attended the recent wake and have already given “white money” to the family. However, with the “season of giving” just around the corner, I’m trying to arrange for a second round of donations for the family, hoping to offer what aid we can to help mother and son tide over this extremely difficult time. No obligations here. If you feel that you have given as much help as you could, it is ok.

After some discussions with Wei Cheng’s cousin, we have jointly decided that cheques would be the most efficient method of facilitating these donations. Even if you are unable to write a cheque, I hope you can approach your parents and see if they would like to extend their help in this. My team-mates and I are organising this to provide an avenue for those who wish to extend their aid to the Chee family, but do not know where and how.

You will have my assurance that all donations will be documented, and that the FULL proceeds will be handed to Mdm Chee. We are doing this for we believe that Wei Cheng, being the filial son that he was, would not want his brother and mother to have to bear the weight of his departure.

For those who would want to donate a substantial amount to the family, please either reply to this message,contact me at keng_heng@hotmail.com or 96461072. Details on how to donate will be disclosed to you privately. I hope to be able to collect all donations during the 3rd week of this month, which is 17th to 22nd December 2007.

I’m not sure of the response to this, but I thank you for reading this, and hope we can all do our part to help the family.

Yours Sincerely,
Chian Kai Hong

This short testi from both of them to one another, brings out a smile on my face. They said true friends are hard to come by. I am sure, these 2 angels are looking after each other, and being good friends up there, with the rest of their 3 brothers.

All donations will be documented and that the full proceeds will be handed to Mdm Chee, Wei Cheng’s mother.

Since this a season of giving, I hope you guys will spread the word and let us help out in anyway we can.

In the arms of an angel… fly away from here…

“There are dreams that may seem good but are only worth a short while, and there are dreams that you know you will have no regrets living for the rest of your life. Opposition to those dreams test how well we’ve thought it through and whether we really want it.”

Never let go of your dreams.

These 5 men left with beautiful memories. Not only to those they had come in contact with, but strangers who happen to know them through their friends and family writings. Let us pray for them, and always keep our prayers to their love ones as well.

Wei Cheng, Reuben, Boon San, Stephen and Jeremy, rest in peace. Take care of each other up there, and don’t forget those ones below. They love you very much…

Not Goodbye…

At the memorial service…

” What are you doing? ” I asked a female friend.

” I’m smsing Jeremy… I’m asking him to go in peace…
And we miss him… And I’m hoping he is looking after us…. “

” I’m sure he will… ” and I hugged her…

and tears rolled down our eyes…

Dearest Jeremy…
Don’t blame us for the tears that have been pouring…
We will miss you.
Though you will always be in our hearts…

You have touched so many people’s heart.
Here’s to you and the rest…
Rest in peace my friend…

Zixiang,
“Cherish the ones dearest to you before its too late”.. I admit I knew this but I failed to apply, now I am missing you already…
You have been always so cheeky since primary school days and never fail to make people laugh. We were the 5 heavenly kings in class and you were the big brother. You would like to show your flexibility by bending hands and legs, always entertaining everyone around you.
Around 2 years ago was my last time meeting you, at a CNY invitation dinner. You were no longer the playful guy in the past, but someone so gentlemanly. I remembered although at the table were all guys, you still stood up and volunteered to distribute the food to the rest. Being strangers at the table, you even tried to create conversations so as to make everyone feel at ease.
You have always put others before self, taking care of people around you.

Thank you for being my friend, and I am glad that I knew you.
