Sorry for your loss. Assuming the house was titled in his name only, it should go through probate. The siblings can formally "disclaim" their shares. The brother can continue to live there and pay the existing mortgage.

Here’s one way, assuming the LLC is member managed:

NAME OF LLC

By its member, Name of Member
