Send the company a letter along with a copy of the death certificate. If there is an estate, the balance will need to be paid. Check with your lawyer for varying circumstances.

Closing a credit card, especially if you have made on-time payments throughout the life of that card, will negatively impact your credit record (one less credit card, lower total line available, higher line utilization, etc.).
