the text in this section is copied from an article in Wikipedia

Eucherius (c. 380c. 449) was a high-born and high-ranking ecclesiastic in the Christian church in Roman Gaul. He is remembered for his letters advocating extreme self-abnegation. From 439, he served as the archbishop of Lyon, and Henry Wace ranked him "the most distinguished occupant of that see" after Irenaeus.
