As stated previously, the Internet is certainly NO place to receive legal advice, particularly from unknown people with no law degree nor any other actual legal experience of any kind. The following input is NOT intended to constitute legal advice.
Hypothetically speaking, one could simply send a copy of the owner's death certificate directly to the resort HOA (providing no return address of the sender, nor ANY other identifying info). Hypothetically, one could also include a brief, typewritten, unsigned note stating that the herein named decedent will obviously NOT be seeing (OR paying) any past, present or future maintenance fee bills and, if the resort wishes to initiate foreclosure proceedings, they should perhaps consider doing so without delay, in order to be able to take back ownership of the week and resell it to someone else.
Not legal advice. Just "hypothetically speaking"...
