Pammachius

Pammachius was a Roman senator and a friend of Blessed Jerome, married to Paulina, one of the daughters of Saint Paula. After the death of his wife, in 395, he became a monk and spent the rest of his life and his immense wealth in the service of the sick and the poor. He reposed in the year 410. He is a saint of the undivided Church, venerated in the West.

His commemoration falls on 30 August (new calendar); the Churches on the Old Calendar keep the same day of the Menaion on 12 September of the civil calendar.
