How do I reset a Iphone If I don't know the Icloud password

My grandmother passed away and we were looking through her stuff and found an old iphone. I want to give it to a member of my family, but I can't figure out how to wipe it. She did not give the password to anyone before she died and this is my personal account. How to I wipe the Iphone without the Icloud password?

take the device, the original purchase receipt with the serial number, and a photo ID to the nearest Apple Store. Also take a copy of the death certificate and a copy of the will or a document that shows you inherited it.
