    Hi Susan

    Here is an article that can be found in the Help Center in Family search that explains what happens to an account one the owner is deceased.

    https://www.familysearch.org/help/helpcenter/article/what-happens-to-the-accounts-of-deceased-users

    Please note that the account is closed when a person dies. The above article explains in detail. You will not be able to access the account.

    Thank you Family Search
