Unfortunate News of a Trappist Abbot (France)

The Trappist order's web page had a disconcerting post on August 4: "Dom Godefroy Raguenet de Saint Albin, Abbot of Acey, who was spending a few days of rest in the Abbey of Hauterive in Switzerland, left for a bike ride in the mountains on August 3 in the morning, has not returned in the evening and disappeared. The police has immediately begun a search for him since that night. The bicycle has been found in a parking lot. It is assumed that he has continued walking through the mountain. His whereabouts are still unknown. We ask the entire Order to pray for the safety of Dom Godefroy."

Today, I found this update: "After a day´s search, the police has found the body of Dom Godefroy this afternnon. It seems that he has fallen down from a height of 51 metres and died. May God grant Dom Godefroy eternal rest, and we pray for his family and for the community of Acey."
