Washing a Deceased Man by a Woman

Question
Is it permissible for a woman to wash her brother upon his death?
Answer

I say, and with God's success: It is permissible to wash at death when the gender is the same, and it is not permissible when they are different, so it is not permissible for a sister to wash her brother, and God knows best.
