Contact an attorney. It's not very expensive. There are different ways of probating a will. The process involves making an application to the probate court. You can ask for letters testamentary or a muniment of title. You then have a hearing in which you "prove up" the death and the validity of the will.

If you have to ask that question, you need an attorney. All of the forms and procedures are available at your local law library if you want to try it yourself.
