      The author establishes the identity \[ \sum_{k=0}^n m^kL-k + (m-2) \sum_{k=0}^{n+1} m^{k-1} F_k = m^{n+1} F_{n+1}, \] for nonnegatiev integer \(n\) and real \(m>0\), \(F_n\), \(L_n\) denote the Fibonacci numbers and Lucas numbers, thereby generalizing previous Fibonacci-Lucas relations of Sury and Marques.
