Joseph Izzillo was featured in an
article that appeared in the Naples Daily News, concerning his
pursuit for the Canonization of Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha. Mr.
Izzillo, an artist for over 40 years, painted an oil painting of
the Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha, know as “Lily of the Mohawks”, which
is on display near her tomb in the Mohawk village of Kahnawake, on
the south shore of the St. Lawrence River near Montreal.
