    This is common information found online about this saint:

    " Saint Olivia, hailed from Palermo, Sicily. She was a beautiful young woman who lived during the 9th century. When Olivia was thirteen years old, Muslims kidnapped her from her noble Sicilian family and took her to Tunis in Africa, where they made her a slave. But her abductors were so impressed by her virtue and beauty that they allowed her to live in a cave by herself. Local sick people came to her for miracle cures, which she converted from Islam to Christianity. Because of these successful conversions, Olivia was imprisoned and tortured. She was sentenced to be burned to death, but the flames would not touch her! So the Muslims beheaded her, finally killing her.

    Saint Olivia is the patron saint of music, and some say it is because she liked to sing and write songs. Her feast day is June 10.
