Sorry for the bad news,i kinda went through something like that when my grand dad passed...Some a55hole in the family that most of us never saw before,took all the guns that i was sposed to get left to me.Including but not limited to one of the very first browning pistols ever made that my G dad got in Belgium during world war 2.Get everything he wants u to have as soon as u can.The wolves will be in packs to take what they can when the time comes.
