Inherited Apple Watch 1

This is going to sound a bit odd but a family member passed a fair while ago and I have inherited his Apple Watch, problem is now I'm trying to set it up and require his Apple ID and Password but as he died pretty suddenly, no one has this information. Is there any way to sort this problem for example special exceptions for removing activation locks in the case of owner death?
