You can't. Since the relative is deceased they cannot grant a PoA. And even if they had, it would have died with them.
Now that the person is deceased, the executor of the estate is responsible for winding up their affairs. That person will be appointed by the probate court.

Power of attorney stops upon the death of an person. It then goes to the executor of the estate, If the deceased didn't point one that the courts will.

If the estate needs to be probated and there is no Will then someone needs to find an Atty and start the process where a Judge will appoint a Representative/executor/ix.
POA is for living people not dead ones.
How large is the estate, is there a Will, is there an executor/ix named in the Will, if so they handle all this, is there a house involved etc...?
