Good Bye Sir Ed

Sir Edmund Hillary
1919-2008

A truly sad day in history today as one of the most well-known and respected New Zealanders in the world has passed away. Though he will best be remembered for being the first to conquer Everest, arguably his most important accomplishment of all has been helping the people of Nepal. While he will be missed, his legacy shall continue to live on through his family and the Himalayan Trust he established. May you rest in peace Sir Ed. Your life has been an inspiration to me and many others.
