Unfortunately without usernames and passwords it can be difficult and in some cases impossible to manage or delete your son's account. For you to make it easier, login from your son's computer.  He may have save his  passwords and usernames on his omputer. Sometimes logging into his accounts from his computers will allow you to easily access the account and modify or delete it. Unfortunately however, if you don't have the username and password for the computer this may not be possible.  

If you have access to the deceased persons e-mail account it  can  be used to gain access to all other accounts.

Use the forgot username or password feature found on the login page to send you the username and password to the e-mail. Or other option is to go to http://www.facebook.com/help/contact.php?show_form=deceased
