NILS ANTEZANA, Pathologist of Washington, D.C., beloved husband of Gladys Sologuren Antezana, loving father of David Antezana and Fabiola Antezana, died upon his descent of Mount Everest (Nepal), after successfully reaching the summit.

May we all hope to follow in your path: to feel and think young always.
