Honor Marquitta: Support Autism Speaks

Marquitta Clarice Hunter, the beloved daughter of the late Dorothy Hunter Houseal, Freddie Houseal, Sr., and Johnnie James Mathis, transitioned far too soon on June 18, 2024 after fighting a brief illness. Despite our grief, we are grateful for the time we shared with her and for the impact she had on our lives and the lives of countless youth and young adults.

Marquitta always dreamed of working with special needs children and was able to accomplish her dream by working at Prince Georges County Public School System, Barnaby Manor Elementary School. In honor of her life and legacy, we ask that in lieu of flowers, you submit a donation in her honor to AUTISM SPEAKS INC.

More information about AUTISM SPEAKS INC: Autism Speaks is dedicated to promoting solutions, across the spectrum and throughout the lifespan, for the needs of individuals with autism and their families through advocacy and support; increasing understanding and acceptance of autism spectrum disorder; and advancing research into causes and better interventions for autism spectrum disorder and related conditions.
