Very sorry to hear about your loss. As a tenant with a signed lease, it's your job to keep paying the rent, and whether you have a death in the family or not, if you do move out it's still your job to pay the rent. Meanwhile it's your landlord's job to do the best he can to find new tenants and get you off the hook. Be aware that this is a really bad time of year to find new tenants, so your landlord may not be able to get someone right away. Meanwhile, it is still your job to pay the rent. Talk to your landlord and explain the situation. I'm sure he'll be understanding.
