Suppose that a tenant who has a tenancy for a specified term (for example, a one-year lease) dies. The tenancy continues until the end of the lease term, despite the tenant's death. Responsibility for the rest of the lease term passes to the tenant's executor or administrator.
I actually have a friend in SF that is a tenant lawyer. If you haven't found an answer yet, let me know and I'll try to connect the two of you. He also rides pretty motorcycles (so ya know, he's a GOOD lawyer ;) )
