Although it can not be considered as the type of love experienced and shared by a man and a woman, Valentine loved deeply the young daughter of his jailer who he had healed of her blindness and he was her spiritual father. Legend says that on the night before he was executed he sent a note to her, urging her to remain close to God. He signed it "From your Valentine."
