My Dad's DNA is still there, even though he passed away some time ago. I manage the account and he has many more DNA matches than I do, so I don't want to delete it.

A couple of his matches are second cousins and I suspect they have passed away or are not available to be on Ancestry, as they don't answer messages anymore.

I think I will leave my Ancestry password with my daughters and instructions to delete their grandparents and parents DNA, especially if they are not interested in doing anything with it. They can also delete all the family trees if they want, but maybe just leave the simple tree that their own DNA is attached to.
