While his death prompted hundreds of tributes from Hollywood celebs, one of the most touching came from his daughter, Sydney Poitier, who wrote … “My grief is because I lost my dad, but it is also because the world lost so much goodness.”
Scottish singer Lulu — who co-starred with Sidney and sang the theme song for “To Sir, With Love” — also reflected on working with the icon, saying… Sidney was “my friend, my teacher, my inspiration”… she says he empowered those around him and led by example.
RIP Mr. Poitier
