Delete - Article does not pass WP criteria for notability. Fails GNG, SOLDIER and BASIC. There is no significant coverage
WP:SIGCOV of this individual. The references are to wedding announcement, memorial announcement and other trivial coverage. The creator has produced numerous COI articles about family members, their businesses, etc. Wikipedia is not a genealogical site
WP:NOTGENEALOGY to memorialize one's family tree, there are numerous websites such as Ancestry where this can be done as well as free sites, or if they want a more "official" repository of family history online, they should invest in their own domain name and learn Wordpress or hire someone to make a nice website on their family tree and associated stories of one's ancestor's lives. Wikipedia is not a web hosting service
WP:NOTWEBHOST or a memorial service
WP:NOTMEMORIAL.
