John Righi

St. John Baptist Righi, Righi also John de Fabriano, (* 1469 in Fabriano, † March 11, 1539 in Cupra Montana ) was a Franciscan hermit. As the son of a noble family, he joined with 15 years in the monastery and was ordained a priest. Since it was not enough, the poverty of the Franciscan community, he retired to Cupra Montana in Ancona as a hermit, where he was open to the needs and concerns of the people.

After his death, began his worship, which was approved in 1903 by the canonization. Memorial Day is a day of his death, March 11.
