Google executive dies on mountain

DAN Fredinburg, a Google Inc executive based in California, was among those killed on Saturday in an avalanche on Everest caused by the Nepal earthquake, the company said.

He was climbing with three other Google employees. None of his colleagues were injured, a company official said.

He was head of privacy at Google X, a research division.

Fredinburg suffered a major head injury, his sister Megan said on Instagram. “His soul and his spirit will live on in so many of us,” she said.
