Need to remove the name Jim Lutes from Facebook. He has been dead for four years. My name Sue Lutes should only be used.
My Facebook accounts change to the log in name of Jim Lutes. This happens often. He is no longer alive and his name should be removed permanently. My name - Sue Lutes - should always be the log in name. Please help!

Hi Sue, I'm not sure which of these problems you have:
- One Facebook account with two names -- that would be a problem for Facebook to help you sort out.
- Two Facebook accounts and either Firefox's password manager or form history feature is filling the wrong one. Here are some suggestions for those:
To clear an unwanted login from the password manager: You can use the Options page:
Windows: "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options Mac: "3-bar" menu button (or Firefox menu) > Preferences
In the left column, click Security. Then on the right side, find the "Saved Logins" button. This should let you select and remove any login you no longer want.
To clear an unwanted form history entry: When you click in the form field and press the down arrow key on the keyboard to show the available entries, arrow down to the one you do not want filled in and press the Delete key.
Did that help at all?
Also, in case you haven't seen FB's article:
"How do I report a deceased person or an account on Facebook that needs to be memorialized?"
