TRIBUTES FROM ATHLETES
Other Singapore triathletes paid tribute to Mr Lee on social media.
National triathlete Herlene Natasha Yu wrote on Instagram on Sunday: “You were truly one of a kind. You had your own unique way of spreading kindness and warmth, often in ways you probably didn’t even realise.”
Nicholas Rachmadi, a two-time Southeast Asian Games medallist, also posted on Instagram on Sunday.
“More than just a teammate and competitor, you were like a younger brother to me. In spite of however many times you’d share with me that you fell short of your goals, I’d always thought you were a legend in many ways,” he wrote.
“The most resilient, hardworking, hungriest, loving and goofy person who was never satisfied or contented and flew the flag high. You’ve touched and inspired more lives than you’d thought bro, including mine.”
