Gary Wee Kuan Tze was a bowling coach at MegaStrike Bowl and on 7th July 2012, Gary passed away after a prolonged battle with colon cancer. He was 51 years old. He leaves behind his wife and two young kids. PWM in collaboration with MegaStrike Bowl organized this Charity Bowling Tournament to collect donations for Gary's family. More than 100 eager bowlers and friends gathered this morning to bowl for charity in memory of Gary Wee. Many companies and corporations have also pledged their donations. It was heartening to see so many well wishers and supporters coming forward to help as some of us who were there this morning hardly knew Gary; I'm one of them! 
UPDATE
A cheque presentation was held at MegaStrike Bowl on 25th July 2012 at 3.00pm for the widow of the late Mr. Gary Wee. The total donations collected from the "Charity Bowling Tournament" were well over B$17,000-00. Great job, Mr. James Lee, President of PWM and thank you to Major (Rtd) Hazlina, the owner of MegaStrike Bowl for sponsoring the premises to hold this event. Thank you to all the generous individuals and corporations who came forward to make this event a success. God bless!
