90-Year-Old Widow Fights Foreclosure in Fla.
A 90-year-old widow is facing thousands of dollars worth of fines for code violations at her home in Sarasota, Florida. Mary Louise Sikorski has called the little pink house home for decades. She’s scared she’ll lose it.
Her husband, a military veteran, died years ago. Since then, her house has fallen into disrepair. In recent years, the city issued numerous code violations and threatened to begin the foreclosure process. Fortunately a neighbor has decided to help, but the young man’s efforts may not be enough.
