If there is a will then the person to be executor is appointed by the will. If there is no will or the executor is dead then you need to go and see a solicitor about how to proceed. If the estate is very small there may be government advice on how to proceed (solicitors will charge) - there are usually rules about how to deal with estates below a certain value.
