Answer 4

I'm sorry for your loss

First facebook has to recognize him as dead, because I don't think you can get into his account without his password, but if he's dead, Facebook should take some sort of action to contact his closest loved ones and give you access I'm not sure exactly how this process works, but I know that Facebook recognizes some people as dead because it makes their page show a special note on it (ex. "Remembering John Doe")

And I've also noticed people who's loved ones have died have had access to their page after their passing, so I'm assuming you'd have to contact Facebook somehow to prove he's dead and that you're family.
