Oil Heat Cares Helps 83-Year-Old Widow of Korean War Vet

Mrs. Susi, an 83-year-old widow of a Korean war vet, lives by herself. She met her late husband in college after the Korean war and they remained together until her husband’s death.

Mrs. Susi has been battling multiple medical issues, including recent heart surgery, and could not afford a much-needed boiler replacement. That’s when Oil Heat Cares stepped in. With the help of many volunteers and company donations, her boiler and water heater have been replaced in time for winter.

There is also an old steel oil tank that will be replaced when the amount of oil in her tank is low. Roth generously donated the tank and Keith O’Hara from Milro Group has offered to install the Roth tank.
