44 years ago this time, Lily Yung and a handful of us converged at the University of Hong Kong to start our study in biological science. She stood out as an energetic young lady wearing oversized thick rim spec and thick straight shoulder-length hair; this look remained unchanged to the very end. Also remained unaltered was her cheerfully open personality and no nonsense attitude towards life. She is so unique.
Lily, we miss you!

Lily was a rare and generous spirit and a fine artist. Her involvement with the founding of the Artists' Health Centre will always be a cherished memory. Rest in peace, dear friend! You will be missed but always fondly remembered.
