make a suggestion* -- get about 10 certified copies of your SIL's death certificate as your first order of business. You will need to give one to every institution (banks, insurance companies, the DMV, her employer, her retirement fund holder, her lawyer, etc.) which you will encounter in your effort to help your brother sort things out and remove her name from house, car, etc., and to access whatever assets she had.

Also, find the will if she had one.

*suggestions straight from personal experience.
