How do we fix a wrong entry for Verna Jean Beard ID# L28N-4Z1

Greer, Trena Ann

Verna Jean Beard ID# L28N-4Z1 was entered as DECEASED and she is very much ALIVE as of November 2022. We took her Thanksgiving dinner to her home where she lives alone and is still taking care of herself. She is older but very capable of caring for herself. Please help us get her list in her DETAILS as LIVING.

Thank you

Trena Greer for William Beard her Nephew
