I have just read in an English newspaper of the death on 17th April of a pilgrim called Nicholas Oliver Burridge in Santiago having walked the camino. His wife had predeceased him but he was amongst other things a great grand father. Just thought I would tell you all so that those who want, can remember him tomorrow 3rd May when he is to be buried at Worth Abbey, England.

God bless him. He is in my prayers. We all have to move on eventually, but this gentleman certainly did it the right way. Buen Camino.
 
Thank you richeyboy for the news, however sad.
I'll remember him in prayer today.
