You need to request access to the accounts so you can remove them. You cannot remove them if you don't know the password.


Follow the steps in the link provided above to gain access to the accounts and then you can remove them from the devices since assumedly they are activation locked. With access you can enter the password you now have for them to remove them from the device.


Gaining Access will also let you delete the accounts entirely from existence so they are not just sitting there on an Apple server.
