I need to send some information to gain access to my deceased husband's apple account. But the article didn't say where to send things. Anyone have an idea? Thanks.

First of all, sincerest condolences for your loss.


I'm not sure which "article" you are consulting, but I would advise that you check both of these Support Articles:

  1. How to request access to a deceased family member's Apple accounts - Apple Support
  2. How to request deletion of a deceased person's Apple ID - Apple Support


Although those Support Articles do not contain specific information regarding your question, they do offer several links for you, which should help you answer the question.
