Her estate can pay for her funeral but that takes too much time. The family will need to pay for the funeral and get reimbursed by your grandmother's estate at a later time. Save the receipts and invoices.

I do not know where you live so I do not know the local rules. In England if you go to your grandmother's bank with her death certificate and the invoice for the funeral they will pay the undertaker directly from her estate even if probate has not been sorted out. They are not obliged to do this but most branch managers are very sympathetic in these circumstances.

Call an attorney who handles Probate. Since your father is her only living child then he should be able to take the death certificate to the bank and withdraw the money.

You need a lawyer. Did your grandmother have a will? If so, contact the lawyer who wrote her will. If she died intestate (no will), then you will need a lawyer and have to go through probate court. Expect that to take months. In the meantime, check your grandmother's belongings and see if there was a life insurance policy or pre-need burial expense policy.

Wrong area for the question - but contact the bank. They will most likely need a state certified death certificate. Contact your local Vital Records department for a copy of that.

call an attorney. But should you have put that question under family instead of singles and dating?

The bank...You'll need a death certificate and your father's birth certificate. I've done this with no problem.
