He was a precious baby boy who had only begun his life.
It was snuffed out last weekend after a tragic accident.
His family describes what happened in the following email.
But for now little Jeremiah is trying to raise $3000 to bury him.
Currently they’re at $900 and I know Houstonians will step up to the plate to put this baby boy to rest:

Hi Isiah,
I watch and follow your stories all the time. I am now writing to reach out to you although I’m not sure if this will fit under your umbrella of stories.
We really would like to get this story out as the police did not think this was a big enough deal.
We are trying to raise money for a Homegoing Service for my friend’s baby who would have been celebrating his 1 year birthday this month!
Unfortunately, he passed away late Saturday evening while strangling himself when trying to free himself from the carseat!
We have set up a website for people to send their donations.

Please, we need help raising the money to bury her baby boy! God bless!

I recently spoke at the World Alternative Investment Summit in Niagara, Canada and for such a prestigious, well organized event, I was somewhat surprised by the lack of attendance and the overall mood of the conference. We all know that times are tough for hedge funds right now, but the numbers don’t speak as loudly as seeing the faces of its managers and investors. Over the years, hedge funds have been attractive because they have produced good returns and have been an alternative to traditional investments. However, since they are so closely correlated to the markets they have definitely taken a dent to their reputation lately, and many have ceased to be effective or profitable for that matter.
