- Daniel FooDaniel Foo In memory of my elder brother Dennis Moo Seh who passed away in the early morning of Saturday, Oct 24 ,2024. We take comfort in the Lord Jesus' plan to take Dennis home according to His timing, and to relieve him of the pain, discomfort and misery. We thank the Lord for His mercy and grace, for Dennis' earthly life. Dennis had enriched the lives of his family - Scarlett, Chad and Laura, his relatives, and friends all over. I had fond memories of the good time we spent together when I first visited Melbourne Port, sailing on a British ship as a cadet engineer in 1975. The cargo ship was plying between Malaysia/Spore and Australia. Whenever the ship was in Port, Dennis would fetch me in his car for a city tour, and we visited Sovereign Hill, the Winery and other places of interest, meeting his Malaysian friends, and having meals together. It was a wonderful and memorable time for me, learning from Dennis about Australian culture, politics (he told me most overseas students were pro Labour Party under Bob Hawk because of the liberal stance on Immigration ). Dennis used to say, "Politicians talk a lot but speak very little". We watched Channel 9 - the popular Don Lane Show after dinner. Dennis was working at Price Waterhouse then as a Senior Audit Assistant. I learnt about business management and finance from Dennis when he was working with me in 2015. He helped streamline the corporate and finance departments, gave sound advice and put up many business proposals, and brought in a new CFO who is still working with us. In health, Dennis was not that fortunate - he suffered a mild heart attack, and underwent open heart surgery, then in the last few years, he had cancer that took his life away. He was a fighter till the very end. The Lord gives, and the Lord takes away according to His will. Dennis had gone to a better and more beautiful place in heaven. We shall miss his jokes, stories and views on social memes and current political affairs, his laughers, and his warm and presence deeply. We are happy that Dennis is with our Lord Jesus in heaven now, in the loving presence of the almighty God our Heavenly Father. 31st October, 2024
- Agnes & Jessie Heng & GohJess & Fred Ag & Andrew We shall miss Dennis who had been our good friend for decades. We'll cherish the fond memories of his friendship, his lively personality with a heart of gold and immense humour n wit that always made us laugh. He was humble, principled and compassionate in many ways. Dennis left a legacy of great love to his beloved wife Scarlett n family. He had been the pillar of strength and success, overcomer to have bravely journeyed through the final stage of his striving life, having fought a good fight, finished the race n kept the faith at a better place now. Rest in peace Dennis where we'll join you eternally. Pls take good care Scarl w God's abundant blessings and protection.31st October, 2024
- Annette and Phil EastmanDear Scarlett, Laura and Chad, Our sincere condolences on the passing of Dennis. We fondly remember a kind man with an endearing sense of humour. He fought the good fight and is now resting in peace with our Father. You are in our thoughts and prayers at this time. 31st October, 2024
- Sab SabRest in peace Dennis. My dear boss with a dry sense of humour, but full of wit. May the angels light your path.31st October, 2024
- Gary TanOn behalf of Shirley & Li-En also, we’re deeply saddened to hear about the loss of Uncle Dennis. He will always be remembered for his kind heart, infectious laughter, and joyful spirit. His love for good companionship (even if he was particular about MSG-laden food!) brought so much happiness to those around him. I recall memories of him sharing Kway Chap with me at Zion Rd hawker many years back. And when I was much younger, he was one of those ‘relatives’ who would actually chat about my career and was genuinely sharing his thoughts. And there was this once at your old home in Mel, whereby he literally fell whilst rescuing Li-En (toddler then) from a potential fall. Such memories… good… and quite uniquely Uncle Dennis. May he rest in peace, and may his legacy continue to inspire and nourish his family. My heartfelt condolences to you and your family.31st October, 2024
- Madison LimDear YeYe Dennis, although our time was short together, I am thankful for the time we shared. Perhaps They Are Not Stars Perhaps they are not stars, but rather openings in heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy. With love, Madison xx31st October, 2024
- Melanie RankinToday and always, may loving memories bring everyone that knew Uncle Dennis, peace, comfort, and strength. Please accept my deepest sympathies as you grieve the loss of Uncle Dennis. Although I only met Uncle Dennis in 2018, I enjoyed building a connection with him and making memories. I will miss our chats and his big smile. Rest easy now Uncle Dennis. You will always be remembered. With love, Mel xx 31st October, 2024
- Glenn George Cheng"Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed— in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed." - 1 Corinthians 15:51-52 New King James Version (NKJV) To my brother, Moo Seh, who always laughed at my jokes - even when I wasn't telling any. You were, to me, a decent and thoughtful man, a faithful husband to my sister, and a patient, conscientious father to Chad and Laura. I also remember more hilarious exchanges between us than it is possible to record in any intelligible memoir but some highlights are worth mentioning; such as the fact we'll never agree that that MSG has never been able to, and doesn't now kill you. We will disagree that Indian food is delicious, but we agree that it ought to be a crime under the rules of Blackjack to pull a card while holding "19". We also agree that all old school Hainanese chicken rice hawkers were at some stage secretly trained in the deadly martial art of three-legged stool fighting. If you manage to find a good card game in Heaven, save me a seat. I won't be too long behind. Your bother - sorry, brother; Glenn 31st October, 2024
- Sunny SoonDennis, your sense of humor and positive outlook was evident whoever you are with. We enjoyed the lunches and coffees we had with the Grey Hair Brigade that you founded. You initiated many of the council meetings where we tried to solve and debated some of the world’s most pressing issues. We will miss you but will continue with the brigade in your memory. During your time as a professional year trainer at the college, you ignited the future of many students with your valuable experience and wisdom that you shared with them. Many staff and teachers were complimentary of your kindness and support you displayed. Dennis, you have touched the lives of many and I am honored to know you as a friend and colleague. May you rest in peace. 31st October, 2024
- JN and Bee Hong LimIn memory of my dear friend Dennis Foo, whose laughter and sharp wit brought joy to everyone around him. Known for his unwavering humor and ability to lighten any situation, he faced his battle with cancer with that same spirit—never allowing us to be down for long, as he would inevitably find a reason to laugh, even in the hardest moments. He had an insatiable love for politics, often diving into debates that would last late into the night. It wasn't unusual to see him passionately arguing his perspective, leaving everyone else both challenged and entertained. His intellect shone through those conversations, yet he always found ways to make the topics accessible, with a joke or a lighthearted remark to keep things balanced. One of his greatest pleasures was indulging in Asian desserts. I’ll always remember our shared moments sampling everything from Tao Suan treats to intricate Cheng Tng, an activity he treated with the seriousness of a true connoisseur. For him, it wasn't just about the taste; it was the experience, the culture, and the shared enjoyment. Though his presence is no longer here, his spirit and laughter will forever echo in our hearts. Thank you, my friend, for sharing your light, your humor, and your friendship. You will be deeply missed, and always cherished.30th October, 2024
- Seng FanDennis was a very dear friend to me.I will miss him a lot. Over several years, in our LifeGroup meetings, & as volunteers in Our Daily Bread Ministry and in numerous coffee and lunch sessions with the Grey Haired Brigade Group, we have confided and shared many life experiences and other issues. His stories and insights from his successful business career, his life, spiritual thoughts and beliefs and his deliberations of his own mortality have been a great source of encouragement for me to live well and end well. I will miss you very much. Take heart, dear Dennis, you are in Heaven & Heaven is where Jesus is. 30th October, 2024

- Ambalam RATNA rajahDennis had a great professional career, which was appreciated by his superiors . With his knowledge and amiable qualities as well as with his sense of humour he touched the life’s of many including me. Many a time had the privilege of chatting with him on variety of subjects from economy, investments, finance, world politics, Faith etc Though he sent me his farewell msg I regret my inability to be there for his thanksgiving service. Will miss Dennis and the chats had after service. We live in the hope that we will meet him in our eternal home. Ratna 30th October, 2024
- Andy and Renee HoWe cherish our friendship with Dennis because he is a really genuine, sincere, humble and unpretentious gentleman. In our group of friends he usually sits quietly without causing any rancor but we feel his comforting presence, warmth and care. When he talks he delights us with his pearls of wisdom and snippets of humor. His great analytical mind and insight into world issues and finances is awe inspiring. We have enjoyed being with him and will sadly miss him.30th October, 2024
- Anthony Chew Today, we gather to honor and remember Dennis who was more than a friend to me. Losing Dennis has left a hole in my heart. I’m so grateful to have known him and to have shared in so many wonderful moments together over the years even though we both moved to different cities and are ten thousand miles apart. Dennis had a great sense of humour. I journeyed with him online till his final days and despite his illness he was still able to joke about it. At work he always was able to diffuse a tense situation by always making everyone laugh during meetings. During those days, I witnessed how he would drop everything to help a colleague out. What stood out for me was his unflinching determination and principle at work. He had no hesitation in exposing and calling out wrongful practices despite doing it at the expense of his career advancement. Dennis had a gift for making everyone feel valued, especially those working for him. He had this quiet strength and kindness that radiated to everyone around him. What I would miss most is his compassion, magnanimity and sense of justice. I hope to carry his spirit of his generosity, compassion and his ability to make others feel at ease. I will miss our long chats, both on the phone and online, the way Dennis always knew what to say, and his wisdom in reply. Thank you, Dennis, for the joy you brought into my life, for the laughter, the memories and the love. I am so grateful for every moment we shared. Rest in peace, my dear friend. You will always be in my heart.30th October, 2024

- Evelyn and Nathaniel GunaratnamDear Scarlett, Laura and family, We are grateful that our paths crossed and we came to know Dennis more in our Life Group. He always brought humour and asked the more interesting questions that got us thinking outside the box. We admire the way he handled this difficult journey and admire his family for the love, strength and patience as you journeyed with him. You made it possible for him to fulfill some of the desires of his heart. 30th October, 2024
- Shahrukh MarfatiaDear Scarlett, My sincere condolences on the passing on of Dennis. I feel blessed and honoured to have worked with him as my boss at Scott’s Holdings.

- David & Ewah TeyWe are sad, but confident that Dennis is now in a better place in heaven. You have fought a good fight and have kept the faith in Jesus till the end. That's how your steadfast faith have encouraged our lives. A man with wit and humour, at times added with words of wisdom. Reflective and widely read, thus able to communicate with confidence. Often self-suffering and not imposing on others. We will treasure our times and memories of Dennis.30th October, 2024
- Look Fung WangDearest Scarlett, Dennis will be dearly missed. His humour and his stories regaled in his characteristic deadpan manner bring such fond memories. I will remember his visits to my home at Clover pre and post his heart surgery trying to uncover as much as he could from my dad who has had his triple bypass done. Their banter was hilarious, to say the least. Now they are enjoying each other’s company basking in the glorious presence of our Lord! 30th October, 2024
- John & Phyllis FooHelen Keller said, WHAT WE HAVE ONCE ENJOYED WE CAN NEVER LOSE. ALL THAT WE LOVE DEEPLY BECOMES A PART OF US. Dennis, your memory will forever be a part of us.

- Maria MahDennis has always been able to see humour in any situation. I will remember him as someone who reminds us not to take ourselves too seriously. Rest in Peace Dennis.29th October, 2024
- Adeline WongDennis was a boss, mentor and friend whom I will miss dearly. He took care of me as 'girl' as I was the youngest amongst the team of Rose and Kellyn. In those days when working from home was unheard of, Dennis allowed me to do so due to my unstable pregnancy. He taught me through his actions, about priorities in life ie family and health. He remains the first and only boss that told me not to work overtime, that no company will mourn for me but my family and friends. His passing has left a huge hole in our hearts but it will be filled with memories of the times we spent together, I will forever miss him and hope that our messages will bring some comfort to you Scarlett, and all who loved him. 28th October, 2024

- RAFIQ JUMABHOYDear Scarlett and family, As many here will remember, Dennis helped develop the basis of our corporate services at Scotts. We worked together in both good and bad times when he had to maintain a balance between so many competing interests. The last years at Scotts was not easy on any of us. Today you face the loss of a pillar of the family, but knowing Dennis, he would have left behind a strong foundation in you and the children. My heartfelt condolences and a prayer that his next journey will be blessed. 28th October, 2024
- Kellyn KeongIt is with great sadness for me to have to write this. To begin, my husband, Ken, and I would like to express our deepest condolences to Dennis' family. Dennis was my boss and mentor who had guided, shared and advised me not only in my work and also in life experiences. He was always generous in taking care of his staff and colleagues, and he never failed to amuse us with his dry humour. Through the years of working with him and going through all the ups and downs, we had developed friendship overtime which I have come to cherish. Dennis had always stand up for what he believed and his resilience in facing the challenges in work and in life had left a lasting impression on me. These had helped shaped me to whoever I am today. I'm grateful to Dennis for his teachings, advices, friendship and for his time having meals with me, Rose and Adeline when he's visiting Singapore. All are good memories to be cherished and even though he's no longer with us, we shall remember him and keep all memories. Rest in peace, Dennis.28th October, 2024
- Thomas WongDennis, your passing leaves an unfillable void in our lives. As we cherished your friendship at the original Ascott Singapore, your professionalism shone brightly, but it was your kindness, warmth, comradeship and jovial spirit that truly made a lasting impact. I'm grateful for the memories we shared, especially during my tenure as GM of Palm Court in Bangkok. I missed the lunches together when I was back in town and you always filled our conversation with laughter and valuable advice. Your guidance and support meant the world to me. Reuniting with you twice in the past year, when you visited from Melbourne, was a treasure. That lovely last dinner at Newton Circle with the gang was filled with your favorite dishes and warm conversations, is etched in my memory forever. Your friendship was a gift, Dennis. Your presence made our lives richer, and your departure leaves us with cherished recollections. We miss you dearly, but your legacy of kindness, compassion, comradeship and warmth remains. Rest in peace, dear Dennis. Your memory will continue to inspire us. 28th October, 2024
