If you lived on Long Island many years ago, it's more then likely you'll know who the ‘Angel Lady' of Long Island is.  If not, here's a link to part one of her story as told by Newsday  Halo My Dear Angel

In brief, Fran Lenzo was your average Long Island lady with a pretty home in the lovely town of Huntington and remarried to a wonderful man named Jerry.  They lived, they worked and they played just as any happy couple would.  Until the day Fran found a lump in her breast.  And heard the words malignant, chemotherapy and masectomy...too late, I'm afraid.  She and Jerry handled it with grace and charm and Newsday ran a lenthy story about them and what they were going through called "We're in this together."  Of course you're wondering what it had to do with me.

I didn't know when I read that front page story how much it would affect me...and I never dreamed I've have the opportunity of meeting this very special person one day. A follow up story revealed that Fran's cancer had spread and there was nothing that could be done for her.  Her doctors told her to get her papers in order.  Fran was seeking a way to find out how to die the same way she lived and underwent many spiritual changes, one of them being hypnosis.  An Angel came to her during this time and gave her the message that she would not die; her journey was just beginning.

And she healed.  By all accounts and from every doctor it was called a miracle.  Fran began to hear her Angels speak to her often and is the Author of several books including "Halo, My Dear Angel." 

Fran Lenzo, Angel Guidence

I came home from a long day at work one day to a mysterious message left on my machine.  My ex told me to call this woman and just tell her you want to order her book.  I had no idea who or what he was talking about but a few days later called out of curiosity.  She had no idea who I was but began to tell me she'd been written about in Newsday five years before-and I remembered the story.  Her book, she told me was about how the Angels came through and spoke to her.

We spoke for a while and she asked me what I did.  At the time I was just about to graduate from my Feng Shui Studies.  "I'll know who to call" she said "if I ever feel I need Feng Shui."  Little did I realize that she would call---and sooner then I ever would have expected.  About six months later I received a call from Fran asking for a Consultation.  I had not really begun my business yet because I didn't feel qualified in spite of all the schooling and intensive weekends.  This was to be my very first Feng Shui Consultation and Fran knew I was nervous.

She was selling her house at the time; well, trying to sell it.  It had been on the market but no offers.  I went and made suggestions and did the blessings-and the house sold.  Fran insisted I come back one day for a free Angel reading; the messages came THROUGH her, she said, not FROM her.  She told me my Angels name was Loretta, some things about my children and she told me that fear was holding me back from what I should be doing.  I had many people to help in this life and I was good enough at what I did to live my dream. 

THAT was my defining moment.  Words from an Angel through an Angel in human form that encouraged me to follow my passion and stick to it.  I am still doing what I love and the joy I get is immeasurable when the phone rings and a clients says "You'll never BELIEVE what happened."  I do believe it and am as thrilled as they are.

Fran and Jerry moved to Arizona where she started a group called "Women of the Desert" and went on to write more books.  It is unclear whether the cancer returned after over 20 year or she developed a new cancer but she wrote to all of us on Long Island who loved her.  Her last message was just over a year ago:  "I hope to write to you to be able to give you an update but if I don't, you'll know why"!  I Bless this wonderful woman and her Angels for giving me my defining "moment."

Carole,  Many of us have lives touched by angels, unfortunatley many people do not realize it.  I have had a very personal experience and it forever changed my life and that of my husband and a few others.

Carole - this is a wonderful testament to the power of the unknown, the power of prayer and those things that we know (in our hearts) are real but defy reason as we know it.  Fran Lenzo was a host angel.  Plain and simple.  And she became your angel. 

Many people don't believe in angels, but I certainly do.  They are all around us but don't present as the typical winged being we see in print.  You have done a beautiful job of sharing this story.  Thank you so much!

Carole,

That's a fascinating story. I have a friend who works in my office who has a very similar history with cancer. She was given her death sentence over 20 years ago as the cancer was throughout her body and yet, she completely healed and says that the doctors could not believe it.
She claims, and I know it's true, that her work here was not done yet and that a greater power chose to keep her here .....if you knew this woman, you would think she is a living angel. She is one of the warmest most wonderful people I know.

I'm so thankful that you have this history with her and feel saddened at the ending (when she wrote you that last letter).

Carole:  Thanks for the uplifting post.  I lost a close friend many years ago -- and I know he is one of my angels.  I will have to look for the book and pay more attention to the angels in my life.

What a truly remarkable defining moment Carole. You couldn't ask for a more providential first client than Fran. Perhaps her name should be Fran-gela!  I'm almost speechless.....

Jackie, Thank you so much, it was a nice story to write.

Marzena, I enjoyed writing about it, thank you.

Gayle, What an inspiration this amazing woman was to so many...she is very much missed!

Candy, So am I!  I almost didn't, I didn't at the time had a clue who she was...

Andrew, I believe you're right, people are very jaded.  Thankfully I'm not and this wonderful woman shared so much with me and made me never doubt that miracles occur all the time and Angels do watch over us.

Kim, I think you're exactly right, many people don't know the intervention Angels can have--I absolutely believe that and I've been helped myself by them.

Carol, Thank you for your wonderful comment.  Angels have since had a strong presence in my life, they are all around us.  This woman went on to inspire hundreds and hundreds of others--channeled, she said, through her Angels.

Jo, Thank you for sharing that story!  I SAW healings many times in wholistic health but this was unique,  And so was Fran.  I know that she always knew how many people including myself blessed and thanked her all the time, in all the years I always wrote her to remind her it was she (and her Angels) I had to thank.

Teri, They're around, I will never doubt that.  I wish everyone could have had the opportunity to meet this amazing woman.

Fernando, Thank you for sharing that wonderful picture!  It isn't surprising that we've 'met' in the rain :)

Cynthia, I believe I was.  I always thought later how strange for my ex to leave me a message but not any details...and it turns out I had read her story five years before and remembered it, it had a profound impact on many Long Islanders.

Eric, Thank you for pointing that out.  I know I ask my Angel to help at times but I wonder how many other people think to do that.  Great advice.

Joan, I believe that as well, that loved ones are around and will help you when they can.  If I doubted before, I haven't since the day I met Fran.

Deborah, You're very right, the timing of meeting her was amazing.  I had studied for so long but felt so unsure that I wasn't doing consultations.....and I don't know if I ever would without Fran and her Angels.

Maria, She was truly an amazing woman, you would have absolutely loved her.  You felt a real presence all around her.

Carole - You do meet the most interesting people! :)  I agree with Cynthia, you were 'touched by an angel'. And, I definitely believe that angels are amongst us!

Jackie, I really do meet wonderful people, I have the BEST clients you can imagine!  I always count my blessings for them.

Trace, Thank you, she was a true Angel in every sense of the word and I never lost contact with her in all those years.  She blessed many people, I was so fortunate to be one of them!

Loved this post Carole - I too am a believer in Angels - My late Mom assured me many times what scripture has recorded - guardian Angels not only exist to help us - there are millions of them :) can you imagine? LOL

Sincerely,

Grace

Katerina, "Ask and it is Given is a wonderful book"!  It is one I keep in my room.  Someday we'll have to compare books :)

Grace, It's almost difficult to imagine....ALMOST.  But I do believe they are all around us and nothing could ever shake that belief!  Your picture is just beautiful.
