Dear Friends,
My own experience caring for elderly parents has helped me develop a passion to meet these needs. My mother, a brilliant chemistry professor with a love for drawing, suffers from Alzheimer's, and our family continues to struggle with this mentally crippling disease. When I say "I know what you're going through," I mean it. While caring for mom has been difficult, it's made me a better person and a better Probate Judge. When people come to Probate Court for help, I don't view them as file numbers; they're friends and neighbors in need—some with the same needs I have as I care for my mom. I'm passionate about the work I do at Probate Court. Just as important, I have caring staff members who feel the same way. If you lose a loved one, I want you to say what I've heard many times: "My husband's death was horrible, but everyone at Probate Court was caring and helpful. It made the process so much easier." I'm here to help, and I hope you'll support me. Your Probate Judge, |
I'm Mary Blunt, and if you live in Dorchester County, I've been your Probate Judge since you elected me in 2008. Probate Court is about one thing: Helping people through the most difficult times of their lives. Whether it's dealing with dad's death or mom's need for a guardian, Probate Court deals with the really tough problems people face. Our mission is to do the very best job helping people when they need it the most.
