SAINT THEODOSIUS, BISHOP OF VAISON

In the 6th century, Saint Theodosius was bishop of Vaison (Vacontiorum). After some time, due his advanced age, Theodosius' successor, St Quinidius, became his coadjutor. Theodosius died on February 14, 554 and is mentioned twice in the French Martyrology*. (II. 782 and 783)

St Theodosius is also commemorated on February 14.
