Husband Deceased

I applied for membership in my name, but when card(s) came one came for my now deceased husband as primary! How do I get my name as primary and his name removed.

@KimH99556 Hi Kim, please accept my deepest condolences on the news of your loss. I was able to locate your membership and update our records with this information. You are now the only member on the account and you will receive a new membership card within 2-3 weeks. Please allow up to 4-6 weeks for the mailings to cross over to your name due to pre-printed mailing labels. I am always here to help if you need anything further.
