A vig hardly sums him up... but is a way to mark his passing.

Dang. Thanks for this, I hadn't heard. It's a nice simple vig, to remember a
nice, simple man who once stood somewhere extraordinary.

My son once made a vig of the ridge with Mallory's body partially buried beneath
it, and the ice axe just below the ridgeline. I wonder what this news will
generate.
