Dear forummembers,

It is with great sadness I inform you of the death of @annakappa.
She and her husband fraluchi ( who was also a member here ) were very active on this forum.
They were both gentle and wise people.
They were always generous giving us advise on all things Camino.

May she rest in peace together with her husband.

I got the permission from her granddaughter to inform you all. I will also keep her up to date.

I didn't know you @annakappa, but you sound like a wonderful beautiful person. The Caminos, like our lives become beautiful mosiacs of everyone who has ever walked them or touched them in some way, and in the same way our hearts and souls - we never really go away, somewhere we all live forever, somewhere we're still walking.
Buen Camino

Thanks so much for sharing this sad news @SabsP - may Anna and Fraluchi walk many more caminos - always together - and in glory.

Their contributions to the Forum over so many years were inspirational and always so kind and generous.

Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

My heart sunk reading the title. May you rest in His Peace Anna. Thank you for walking the walk of kindness and generosity.

“The Lord bless you
and keep you;
the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you;
the Lord turn his facei toward you
and give you peace.”

Buen Camino fellow peregrina.

Many, various, and continuing.
Anna and FraLuchi stayed with us years ago. When her husband got too long-winded and 'splainy,' Anna would stand behind his chair, waving her hands just like he waved his, and making faces! They were quite a pair. Gracious and full of stories. May they rest in peace.
