Biography
Blessed Eugenia Ravasco, born on 4 January 1845 in Milan, Italy, was the third child of Francesco Matteo and Carolina Mozzoni Frosconi. Tragically, her mother passed away when Eugenia was just three years old. In search of employment opportunities, her father relocated with some of the children to Genoa, while Eugenia was raised by her devout aunt, Marietta Anselmi, in Milan.
