Atonement for Accidental Killing

Question
A man was required to fast for two consecutive months as atonement for accidental killing and did not fast despite being able to. Then God took him. What should his children do to honor their father?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: They should give a food ransom for sixty needy people, each one at an average of two dinars, and God knows best.
