Anne de Guigné

She was declared Venerable on 3 March 1990 by Pope John Paul II.

Anne began to have headaches due to spinal pain, but still did her work in school. She slipped into a coma, and the doctor discovered that she had meningitis. At 5:25 am on Saturday 14 January 1922, Anne died peacefully.

Anne was the oldest of 4 children, and up until the age of 4, was seen as a jealous and proud girl. On 29 July 1915 Anne's father died leading an attack against the Germans in World War I. When Anne's mother told Anne, she was a changed child. With mature understanding, she told her mother that her father was up with the angels. After that day, Anne was no longer rude and jealous. Instead she worked hard to please her mother, and became very religious.
