Marvin John Wright 1927 – 1978 • GXN1-6R6
Marv is my Stepfather and is marked deceased. He is living. He lives near me. I have also tried contacting the person who marked him deceased and she also has not been able to fix this error. I have tried editing this and putting in reason. How do I get this fixed?

- Enter how you know the person is still alive.
- Click Save
- Enter an explanation for the system administrator to review your request. Please provide this information:
