He was appointed a guardian by the court through a private agency. The court nor the other agency took the time to find relatives or find out about my father’s properties or assets. The property taxes were not paid on a vacation property near Houghton Lake, so this property was lost in a tax auction in 2015.
Also, in 2015 the court granted guardianship to a person my father did not like. He was acquainted with my father’s now deceased second wife.
It has come to pass that some how the guardian was able to take my father’s pension and social security from his bank. I was told by the court that all he had control over was medical decisions and where my father lived. From what I’ve learned from neighbors, his home was in disrepair. Every room leaked water and each had pails to catch the water. Also mold was all over the house, and the cooking stove was not working properly.
I was told by friends and neighbors that he was left to fend for himself, even though he had dementia and Alzheimer's. My father’s hard earned money was not put back into the property, nor were the taxes or utilities paid. The guardian did the least possible to ensure my father had a good living habitat.
