Welcome to the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum.

Short Answer: You DO NOT.
Such CANNOT be handled, through 'Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch'; as, such is considered a "Living" 'Ordinance'.
Here are some "Knowledge Articles" in 'FamilySearch':
Sealing to Spouse ordinance listed as "Not Available" in Family Tree
Policy for sealing living members after a spouse dies
Sealings to deceased family members
Basically ...
Your Aunt needs to
▬ "Hold" a CURRENT "Temple Recommend".
▬ Counsel with her Local Priesthood Leader (ie. Bishop; or, Branch President) in the first instance.
▬ Receive, a "Recommend for 'Living' Ordinances" (as, she is "Living"),
▬ Once, all that is done, make an Appointment, with a "Temple", for undertaking, "Living Ordinances".
I hope this helps.

ps: I am sorry I was having trouble locating that THIRD "Knowledge Article".

Sealing to deceased family members
Policy
Living people can be sealed to deceased spouses, parents, and children. Generally, this ordinance would occur at least one year after the family member’s death, and after the other temple ordinances—baptism, confirmation, initiatory, and endowment—have all been performed.
If a worthy member dies within the year after being baptized and confirmed, the sealing may be completed when one year has passed from the date that he or she was confirmed. For more information on this policy, please consult the Church’s General Handbook: Serving in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 28.3.2.
Sealing a Living Spouse to a Deceased Spouse
- To be sealed to a deceased spouse, first, talk with your bishop. When you are ready, call the temple to make an appointment for the sealing. Take the following items with you: Your temple recommend and the recommend for living ordinances.
- A family name card for the deceased spouse if any ordinances need to be performed before the sealing.
- A family group record that shows the living and the deceased family members to be sealed. (This is not required but is helpful to temple staff.)
Sealing a Deceased Child to You and Your Spouse
- To seal a deceased child to living parents, see your bishop. When you are ready, call the temple to make an appointment for the sealing. Take the following items with you: Your temple recommend.
- A family name card for the deceased child for any additional temple ordinances that need to be performed, such as baptism and confirmation.
- A family group record that shows the living and the deceased family members to be sealed. (This is not required but is helpful to temple staff.)
She can go to her home page or her husbands home page and click on Ordnances to request and print ordinance cards.
