The way the non-profit changes the designated deceased trustee's name for it is for the members of the trust or entity to hold a meeting and designate a new trustee. From there a memorandum of the resolution would be passed and signed by all interested members and then a notice of such by the new trustee would be submitted to the county tax collector's office.
