How do I close my deceased sister's bank account if she did not have an executor of estate?

This is her business account which I can sign checks on but am not a partner.

when the deceased estate goes thru probate an executer & rightful heir will be established. you can take those papers showing you are the right heir/executer to the bank with the death certificate and close the account.

i think you have to get a lawyer involved. if she don't have that much money in there you can just leave the account after no transaction in 60 days the government will take the money. or you can go to the bank with death certificate. explain to the boss that theres no executive for her account. bring proof your her sister.
