You don't say if you're the tenant or a survivor of the landlord. Presumably it's the former.
Generally speaking, the rights and responsibilities of a party to a contract pass to that party's heirs upon his death. So the lease remains in effect until it expires or is otherwise terminated. Assuming the landlord did not have a trust and died intestate, any rent goes to the landlord's estate.
