advice Client passed away after buying name from me, still in my account?

[Meland]

I sold a domain name months ago to a Doctor and she was going to use this name for promoting a medical franchise business in Canada. She wanted me to hold the domain name for her as she was very busy and when she was ready to start up her business in the coming months she was going to have me help her set up a registrar account in her name.

After not hearing from her in months I emailed and called, left voice mails, skype, faxed, I tried everything.

I then contacted the medical facility she was the director, as this info was on her emails, they informed me that she had passed away weeks ago and that she had no family as she was an only child, no living relatives that they knew of, no spouse, partner, or business partners??

So here I am with a domain name that someone bought from me in my account
and I am not sure what the proper direction should be in this situation.

What would you do?

who is the owner of a domain name?

the one who is shown in the whois records

I hope you never have a domain stolen.
