Hi, my name is Jeannettie Merchant, and I am fundraising to cover the funeral and medical expenses of my husband, James Howard.

Rick was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, uncle, and brother. Rick passed away unexpectedly on the evening of Monday, October 31st. His death was from pneumonia. He was a heart transplant patient with constant heart problems; his low immune system did not allow him to fight off the infection. Life insurance is limited due to his continuous visits to the hospital. We are asking for a donation to help my beloved husband lay to rest. Any donation will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you all.
