how do I reset my deceased dad's ipad to factory setting?

My father passed away in February 2022 and I have his iPad. it needs to update as do many apps but I don't know his password and my sister has closed down all his email accounts. What do I need to do a factory reset and take ownership? I have a copy of his death certificate.

iPad (8th generation)
