[WSBAPT] Securing Decedent's Home

[Mark Anderson]

Dear All:
Decedent died in his home and was discovered by a neighbor.  Decedent was not survived by a spouse, children, parents, or siblings.  Several heirs have been identified but we have just begun researching their contact information.
In the meantime, who has or who can be given authority to enter the Decedent's home to remove perishables and search the Decedent's belongings for evidence of a Will?
I hope this is an easy question to answer.
Thanks.
