St. Roque was on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land when he came across a town in Northern Italy that was suffering from the plague. He stayed to nurse the victims and eventually contracted the plague himself. He went into the forest so he would not infect anyone. A dog came and licked his wounds clean. He recovered. When he returned home no one recognized him, he was so changed from his illness. Many thought he was a spy sent from Italy. He was put in prison. An angel came and took care of him for five years. When he died he was finally recognized because of a heart shaped birth mark on his chest. His family was heart-broken. During the middle ages people placed 'Viva St. Roch' above their doors to ward off the plague
