Tenant died of covid. Cannot reach ICE contact

Well i experience something new every month in being a landlord, even after several years. 

My tenant was mid 60s and apparently died sadly from covid.  he was divorced and the only one on the lease.  his ICE contact i believe is his ex wife.  

I will try to reach out to her again later next week since this all happened apparently last week.

I'm researching my obligations, etc to make sure I handle everything appropriately.  I will likely need to contact a lawyer as well.

If anyone has gone through this, please share any thoughts or things to watch out for.  Also, we're in the middle of an ice story and with no one there, there's the concern for the upkeep of the house, pipes bursting, etc.
