Police Officer Keith Palmer, 48, was on duty protecting Parliament Wednesday when he was stabbed to death.

He had been a member of the parliamentary and diplomatic protection forces for 15 years, and a soldier in the Royal Artillery before that.

Honoring Palmer, Prime Minister Theresa May said he was “a husband, a father … he was every inch a hero.

“His actions will never be forgotten.”

Praise for Palmer’s bravery also poured in from politicians and colleagues, and Britain held a minute’s silence Thursday at 9:33 a.m. in honor of his shoulder number, 933.

Aysha Frade, a British national whose mother is Spanish, was one of two people killed on the bridge.

Rachel Borland, the principal of DLD College – a school in Westminster a stone’s throw from Parliament – said she was a “highly regarded and loved” member of staff who worked in the school’s administration team.

The Spanish Foreign Ministry says Spanish consular officials have made contact with Frade’s relatives in Spain’s northwestern region of Galicia, when her identity was confirmed.

Frade was 43 and had two daughters, Spain’s regional Voz de Galicia newspaper reported.
