I believe this is the title of an article that was shown one week ago.
And she's really the person to remember.
Lydia Sum (1945 - 2008)
I believe many Singaporeans are familiar with her, and I think nobody in Hong Kong doesn't know her. She's always there with her smile, she has never changed her hair-do, she has never changed her glasses. And of course, her laughter is priceless.
It's very sad for me to see her go.
I have been hearing her voice since I know how to decipher Cantonese. She's always present in a lot of variety shows, especially Hong Kong charity shows.
As how Mr Donald Tsang (Hong Kong SAR Chief Executive) has described her, she has the qualities that fellow Hong Kong people look up to - she's hardworking, passionate, and she brings joy to all of us.
Despite all the difficulties she faced in her life, she continues to bring us joy without fail. She is also a very responsible woman, she is a great entertainer, and of course she is a very good role model.
She is also a superb mother and has brought up her daughter Joyce very well. I think Joyce's singing is quite good, not as what many Youtubers said. I believe she has also inherited some traits from her mother.

And I was really moved by her speech when she received her award from TVB in 2007. She is so determined to get back to the entertaining industry. She never gave up, and she is totally into her job.

She's a great entertainer.
And of course she is a big lady, but with an even bigger heart.
