"I would've probably died," said Marie Boudreaux. "There was so much smoke, I picked up my phone and I thought I called 911, but I wasn't capable."
Boudreaux's home was on fire. And seconds after it started, her neighbor Todd Dahl and his friend Antonio Saldana just so happened to be driving by.

"I made a U-turn," said Saldana. "I seen it, yeah man it's a fire."
Dahl, 29, ran into the burning home. He said Boudreaux living room rug was on fire. She was passed out on the couch.
"I just yelled, 'Ma'am ma'am,'" Dahl said. "And I kind of shook her a little bit. And she kind of moaned. I picked her up. I just picked her up, carried her outside and set her down on the front porch."
Firefighters arrived and treated Boudreaux. On Tuesday, she was back home and had a chance to thank her heroes.
"I love them, and thank God for him," she said. "Angels. I think that's God's angels."
"She got to see another day because we just so happen to pass by," said Saldano, 20.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
