We have a lot of Kiwis that are "world famous" in New Zealand, but Sir Edmund Hillary was truely world famous.
Sir Edmund Hillary died yesterday at the age of 88 as most of you probably know, his was a life that most could only dream of, one of the last great adventurers in my mind.
Being a kiwi myself Sir Ed is part of New Zealand's collective psyche, I've always known who he was and what he did and I'm dang proud of it, I'm sure many Kiwis and people from across the globe feel the same way.
You'll be missed.
Tribute to Sir Edmund Hillary
