Anthony’s Story

“Dad always wanted to provide for us. Growing old with dignity and leaving a legacy were the two most important things to him.

After mom passed away, Dad moved in with us. But when the stairs became too much, we all realized that an assisted living facility was the best and safest place for him to live with the independence and dignity that he had always wanted.

Thanks to attorneys at Cody, Cody & McCarthy, we were able to provide both the care Dad needed and lifestyle he wanted, and Dad was still able to realize his dream of paying for my son’s college education and my niece’s wedding.”

Anthony M, Jr., Milton on his father, Anthony Sr.
