A great sadness overwhelms me. They have now, both of them, gone to God.
Sir Edmund Hillary, Tenzing Norgay, rest in peace. I hope to see you some day, but not quite yet.

About Me
- Dan L.
- In California, enjoy hiking & mountaineering. I work in the shipping dept. of a major automotive company. I have an A.A.Degree. I am a former aerospace inspector, multiple weapons systems. Am very much about teaching my children about life. They have been raised hanging around Edwards Air Force Base watching the SR-71 Blackbird in it's final years, visiting the Grand Canyon, redwood trees at Big Basin & Big Sur, Catalina Island, cruising up to the magnificent Sierra Nevada mountains, Sunday Mass at many locations -- a California Mission, monastaries, etc. My sweet & beautiful wife, Cruz, means the world to me. I thank God for bringing her to me and blessing us with 4 daughters. Listening to The Who has restored my interest in learning to play guitar. I really enjoy the style of Pete Townshend. That's where I am TRYING to go. I would like to thank Pete Townshend, a man I have only seen on stage, but NOW HAVE MET!..., for putting his novella on a blog. It has prompted me to enter the blog world...a strange, odd place. "Sickness will surely take the mind where minds can't usually go." -from The Amazing Journey/Tommy, by Pete Townshend.

Godspeed to them. Were they friends of yours? Super photo Dan.

In reading Anne Marie's blog post, I see who they were, very corragious and caring men.
Hi Dan,
I feel exactly the same way you do. I had nothing but respect and admiration for both of them, indeed for all the Sherpa people of Nepal who work in the Everest industry.
May these two great men rest in peace.
