St. Dominic Savio

Dominic was a bright kid who met St. John Bosco at the age of 12 and attended his school. As an ordinary and fun-loving boy, he sometimes got into trouble for laughing too much in the classroom. He loved to play games, but also devoted long hours to prayer. He died at the age of 15 due to a severe, unidentified illness, and was later canonized for displaying such heroic faith at a young age.
