Tell your DH that that lady died of an unrelated heart attack after she gave birth, in hospital after she was transferred. Homebirth has been proven again and again to be just as safe, if not *safer* than hospital birth for both mother and baby. Although your husband has every right to his opinions, at the end of the day it's your choice and your body, and hopefully he can be open to educating himself on what you decide. Once he's become educated and informed about Homebirth, he won't be afraid.
