that many people considered him to have died at
too young an age - fourteen - to be considered for
sainthood, he was considered eligible for such
singular honor on the basis of his having displayed
"heroic virtue" in his everyday life.[8] He is the only
saint of his age group, which includes Maria
Goretti and Ponticus of Lyons[9], who was
declared to be a saint not on the basis of his
having been a martyr, but on the basis of having
lived what was seen as a holy life. He was
canonised a Saint on June 12, 1954 by Pope Pius
XII, making Saint on June 12, 1954 by Pope Pius
XII, making him the youngest non-martyr to be
canonised in the Catholic Church. He is the patron
