Clan Leader Died - What should we do?

[Heisenberg 3]

Clan is Crimson Tide, Level 11 clan.  Only a couple of active players because the clan leader died (yes, IRL) and we cannot figure out how to contact his wife or family.  GMs won't do jack to help.  We are stuck because only one player is elite and cannot grow clan.  Any suggestions?

Apologies if I come across as insensitive, but it really baffles me, how do you know he actually died if you do not know anyone from his real life who could contact his family?

Exactly.  I actually have in my documents my wife to contact one of my officers I trust in clan so he can walk her through transferring the clan in case of something is to happen to me.  Obviously your either not telling the truth because your officer does not know the clan leader out of clan which most times in non tight knit clans is quite possible.  Or the clan doesn't like the clan leader quit and want to keep the clan going, but its his/her clan and if you don't like it move on to a new clan.

My Deepest Condolences

He was a great man and he will be missed. I know he was not well but I didnt think his time would come so soon. 

May he rest in peace

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say it's probably not a good idea to contact his wife about the game.  Consider what the family is going through when you think about contacting them about a GAME.  I realize some people put a ton of time and effort into getting items/clans where they are BUT decency and respect towards his family should take priority.  Sucks to start at the beginning but it is the right thing to do.  Also consider the fact that she may not even know his account info if that is what you are looking for.  I know my wife doesn't know jack about any of my games.  Now on the other hand, if she played or was part of the clan, that might be a little different story.

I don't know why i felt the urge to reply to this post since this is my first day back (almost) to L2 in I don't know how long.  I think I last played right around the time they introduced dual classes.  So yeah, I'm gonna be lost and MAY even start over.  I guess that's the link, I'm starting over.  Whatever the case, please consider the family in your decision.

Yeah, Sorry to hear of his loss.....   Always terrible news... But yes Id say   make a new clan or  shout to buy one....   You wont get  anywhere from GM's most likely...
