Ricardo Alanis, founder of first pilgrimage from Chicago to Our Lady of Guadalupe shrine in Des Plaines, died of COVID-19. His family will walk 15 miles to honor him.

Though the traditional overnight celebration of the Feast for Our Lady of Guadalupe at the Shrine in Des Plaines and all pilgrimages from December 11-12 have been canceled, some of Ricardo Alanis’ family will make their way to the shrine from Chicago by foot, the way he did it for nearly 20 years
