After his wife passed away, he entered the Franciscan as a tertiary and served in a Franciscan hospital as a nurse. In his lifetime, he was reputed to be a deeply mystical and holy individual and was credited with miracles. He was beatified in 1802, in part because of miracles reported as occurring at his tomb.
