"We all know there are angels in heaven looking after us, but I know better than anyone that there are also angels 'walking among us.' How could Lucia not be smiling? You have carried on her mission. I send my love, my gratitude, my heart to six very special angels!!"
- Suzi
"I want you to know what an amazing surprise it was to come home Christmas Eve and find a check from Lucia's Angles. As you know, with the exception of a few days around Christmas, I spent Dec and Jan in the city undergoing radiation treatment at Sloan Kettering. The process took a lot out of me physically, mentally, emotionally and financially. In addition to the housing financial troubles I am having, this was enough to put us over the top. The Lucia's Angles check came right on time and helped pay some critical bills, including the heat bill. We ran out of oil the day after Christmas.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart and please extend my thanks to the Lucia's Angles."

"Today I opened my mail and found a very generous check made out to me from Lucia's Angels. I don't know what to say. I don't know why you have chosen me to be a recipient of such generosity. You truly are Angels and Lucia is smiling down on us right now.
I thank you Susie, Stacy, Cindy, Evelyn, Diane and Karen from the bottom of my heart. This will be my happy money, only to be used to fill my soul with joy! Which is how I feel when I attend an event with all of you, I am engulfed by the love of those around me. I am special BECAUSE I have breast cancer and you make me feel like a victor not a victim.
To each and everyone of you, may God's light shine down upon you and your loved ones for all of your dedication to those who are in need. Especially Gods blessings upon Lucia, her family and her friends for creating something so beautiful. God took the most beautiful flower in the garden and her friends handed us bouquets.
With deep Love and Affection"

"Thank you Lucia's Angels for being there for this family, especially the children. The extra nanny care was so needed at this most difficult time in their young lives. Thank you and God bless you."

"I was not lucky enough to have known Lucia Terzi Bagan personally, but I’ve heard so much about her, from so many different women who make up the South Fork Breast Health Coalition-somehow, I feel as if I did know her.
How many of us can say we left this world a better place then we found it? From what I understand, Lucia did exactly that, and although we lost her, she is still touching people’s lives through “Lucia’s Angels”. A newly formed foundation under the umbrella of the SFBHC set up in her memory, by her dear friends, so Lucia’s spirit lives on forever, and she continues to make a difference in people’s lives, and I am one of those very lucky women.
I was not your normal cancer patient. I was diagnosed in 2002 with Breast Cancer, but I was the sole caregiver for my critically ill husband and there was no way I could take care of myself without putting my husband in a nursing home, something I promised never to do. So, crazy as it sounds, I did nothing until John passed away in 2005, by then I had metastatic cancer, no money, and no family.
With the help of some of the most amazing women and men who make-up the SFBHC and Lucia’s Angels, I am alive and fighting the battle we all face, except now I don’t have to fight the battle totally alone.
To Lucia, I say thank you from the bottom of my heart for the help I have received from your fund and through myself and others just like me, you are still with us in spirit, helping us get through the physical and financial battle, and hopefully when we are well enough, we can contribute to Lucia’s Angels to ensure it will live on forever.
If I was granted one wish it would be to be remembered for making a difference for leaving this world a better place then I found it. To give back and reach out to the next person who is about to join our exclusive club.
Last, but not least, To Susie Barry Roden who made a promise to herself that no one who came after her would have to face cancer alone. Susie had a dream and the passion to carry out that dream, and we are the lucky ones that have benefited from the SFBHC and Lucia’s Angels will be here for our children and their children to come by, giving back either financially or volunteering your time. Whatever it is you choose to do, you’ll feel wonderful, because you too will make a difference, and just may be on of the many Angels that make up the SFBHC.
Thank you, to all who have touched my life, I will never forget you!"
- Susie O’Connor
"To All Lucia's Angels– Susie, Cindy, Stacy, Karen, Evelyn & Diane:
You do the most thoughtful things. I am planning to replace my non-working wristwatch with the donation you gave me. Every time I check the time, I will think of your thoughtfulness and generosity! To me that is meaningful and wonderful.
Many Thanks!""
