You can request copies of their obituaries from the
Washington State Library,
www.secstate.wa.gov/library/ask.aspx . They will search for 60 minutes at no charge & reply with what they do or don't find.
After I receive an obituary, I use
www.whitepages.com or
www.zabasearch.com to find current contact info for survivors. You might have to find obituaries for their children. The above mentioned Death Index only goes through 1960. Successful Searching!
