It will be Lydia Shum's birthday (生忌) on 22nd this month. Her beloved daughter Joyce Cheng wanted to do something to remember her by donating a lot of her belongings to the Hong Kong Heritage Museum. Lydia's belongings will be on display for 6 months from 21st July. Joyce will be attending the opening ceremony for this particular event with a few of Lydia's good friends including Mrs. Chan Suk Fan. In the opening ceremony, relatives and friends will be able to purchase the recycled carrier bags made by Lydia's silk scarves shaped as a happy fruit with printed happy face to commemorate her happy image. 2000 bags will be made, selling at $100 dollar each. Lydia's good friend 娥姐 (Roman Tam's god mother) is sponsoring the whole cost. All the proceed will go to "Hong Kong Children Cancer Foundation". Mrs. Chan estimated that there will be more than 200 people attending the event and most of them are relatives and Lydia's good friends. The invitations will be sent out soon, but if they have missed anybody out, they can contact Ka Ho, Mrs. Chan's son to reissue their invitations because they need the invitation to attend the event. The invited guests will have the privilege to buy the silk scarf recycled bag first, any bags that are not sold will be left for the public to buy the next day.
