About McCarthy Heating Oil

McCarthy Oil was founded in 1961 by James Sr., his wife, Mary, and their son, James Jr., operating out of the basement of their home. As time went on, the business grew and another son, Joseph, joined his family in the industry.

For the last 47 years, James Jr. has served as President of the company. He treated all his employees and customers just like family. He was easy to talk to and ALWAYS greeted you with a smile on his face. He always felt that a handshake was as good as his word. He loved his job and never thought of it as work. 

Through his guidance, his son, Michael, has taken over as President, and his daughter, Kelly, has taken over as Secretary of the family-run business. Along with the office staff, oil drivers, and service technicians, McCarthy Oil will continue to serve our customers the way James Sr. and James Jr. did for the past 61 years.

We are now four generations strong and continuing to grow every day. We will deeply miss Shay but keep his memory forever in our hearts!

Thank you to all our customers for your love and support during this challenging time for our family. The flowers, cards, phone calls, and donations were incredible and overwhelming. It was a true testament to the people and lives that our dad/husband touched over the years. 


Thank you from the McCarthy Family.
