Lim’s wake started on Thursday morning, with his funeral set for Saturday.
However, his family has requested members of the public to respect their privacy at this time – adding that the wake and funeral will be “a private event for family and close friends only”.
“Perhaps the best way to honour his memory is through the joy and laughter he brought to all our lives through his work,” wrote Lim’s family.
In a statement to CNA Lifestyle, a spokesperson for the Lim family said that Moses Lim “passed away peacefully due to ischaemic heart disease”.
Close friends who have attended Lim’s wake include Jack Neo, Aileen Tan, Chew Chor Meng, Zhu Houren and Cassandra See.
Celebrities including Fann Wong, Christopher Lee and Mark Lee have also sent funeral wreaths to Lim’s family.
