Veteran Hong Kong actress Lydia Sum dies

1947- 2008

The only actress my mom had ever met in person. Why? My mom used to work at hotel as waitress when she was young. Well, that time Lydia Sum came to Malaysia for a show and stay at the hotel where my mom worked.

A veteran Hong Kong actress Lydia Sum, known for her iconic black-rimmed glasses and heavy build, died early Tuesday, news reports said. She was reportedly 61.

The cause of death wasn't immediately clear, but Commercial Radio reported on its Web site that Sum had been suffering from a bile duct condition. Radio RTHK reported on its Web site she suffered from liver cancer.
