NEPAL-NZL-HILLARY-MEMORIAL
Nepal's tourism minister Prithivi Subba Gurung lights a candle in front of a portrait of Sir Edmund Hillary in Kathmandu, 11 January 2008. Nepal's Sherpa community was plunged into mourning over the death of Sir Edmund Hillary, a "second father" to a people whose sacred peak Everest he became the first man to conquer in 1953.The gritty mountain community said the larger-than-life New Zealander will be best remembered for his promotion of Nepal as well as his efforts to give something back to the impoverished villages nestled in the mountains.
