Re: friends suicide
If it wasn't paid for, it didn't belong to him so he can't determine who gets it when he dies/died. The finance company owns it and will gladly take it off the widow's hands and probably drop their claim for payment etc if it is in good condition. You can alternately payoff the outstanding loan amount, have the title released to the widow, and she can give it to you.
