Regarding the web hosting, some of the providers I use offer the possibility to 
renew for several years at a time, like 5 years. So it might be that the site 
was renewed in the matter shortly before his death and will therefore stay up 
for a year or two more before it goes off the air.

Cheers,
Nathan
