"We never thought we'd have the strength to do it, but this is how much we don't want to let Lucy down. We know we can never bring her back. But, if we can save just one life, that's as close as we can get." - Vanessa Davies-Perez, Lucy's aunt and godmother, highlighting the motivation behind the foundation's efforts to promote boat safety.
"This initiative emphasizes boater safety awareness and responsible behavior on the water, a message that resonates strongly as the second anniversary of the tragic boating accident that claimed Lucy's life approaches." - Melissa Fernandez, underscoring the importance of raising awareness to prevent similar tragedies.
The family hopes to raise awareness about boat safety with the flags that will hang on various Miami-Dade Police vessels, emphasizing the initiative's role in education and prevention.
The Lucy Fernandez Foundation was created not only to honor Lucy’s memory but also to provide scholarships to her alma mater and educate boaters on safe practices.
