Let me add one other bit.
I had a similar experience about 18 months ago when my friend A. suddenly died. He was fit and healthy, but for some reason had a seizure on a bike ride, crashed, and that was the end of his story.
Unfortunately for his widow, she and he were not on a family account with Apple, and so it took a LOT of rigmarole to even access, say, the photos on his phone.
Apple now has a "Legacy Contact" feature you can enable; this is a VERY VERY GOOD IDEA FOR MOST PEOPLE. I assume Google has something similar if you're on Android.
The tl;dr is really "you just gotta have a plan." When you go, next week or decades from now, it'll be hard for those you leave behind. Do whatever you can to make it easier for them.
