I think the best way to Honor Sir Ed is to help continue his life work. I am going to donate to his trust The Himalayan Trust.
in America, The American Himalayan Foundation does similar work, and is in some way associated I think.
The average salary is about $350/annum. Over 30 percent of the population is totally illiterate (they can't write their own name) and many children must work to support their family. These foundations make a huge difference, giving health care and education to those who so desperately need it.

Soon after his passing I named my favorite bong in his memory, the first man to be higher than anyone else.
