Under the heading of been there and done that, I would advise him to contact all 3 credit bureaus to report her death, he may need to provide copies of the death certificate, or originals. The credit bureaus will then advise companies that use their service that the wife has died. In theory he should not have to contact all of the credit/debit cards about this.
Also, make sure the credit freeze is in place, when my previous wife passed away there were a lot of instances where bad people would look at obits and open accounts based on that info.
