Blessed Panacea de'Muzzi of Quarona
Also known as
• Panacea de Muzzi
• Panacea of Quarona
• Panassia, Panexia
Profile
Panacea's mother died when the girl was an infant. When she was old enough, Panacea worked as shepherdess. Her father re-married, but her step-mother, Margherita di Locarno Sesia, quickly developed a hatred of the girl, partly because she would not work as ordered, and partially because Panacea was a pious little girl and Margherita hated religion. The conflict culminated when Margherita murdered Panacea while the girl was at prayer.
Local festivals celebrating her memory traditionally include puff pastries names beatines made according to ancient recipes.
