Reporting a Deceased account owner

I want to provide the death certificate of my deceased father who was the Comcast account holder.
There is an outstanding balance due and there are no funds available in his estate.
I want to report the death and work to get this matter resolved.

Hi,

The account referred to is: Lester C Smith account # 849834008349248
I have enclosed the death certificate for Lester C Smith (as a shared Drive file)https://drive.google.com/file/d/1A9lpy_RRP3yPx2fKs2PnSiRpjn_sWXsB/view?usp=sharing, he was my father and I wish to have the account closed.
There is an outstanding balance due of $855.35 and I don't have the funds to pay it, neither does his estate.

I've been informed I'm not legally on the account as an authorized user.
I want to report the death and work to get this matter resolved.
Regards,
Donna Smith
