My father used to have two icons on his laptop.  One was 'state of the nation' .... that would equate to my  Money 95  net worth' status,  The other was 'winding up orders'....what needed to be done when he died.  We used to joke about it but it was invaluable when he DID pass away.    Just do it!

Mines called "The Snuff Box"!

Age UK do a booklet that you can fill in with all the details for banking, utilities etc. Or just make a document but print a copy (unlike my dad, who had everything sorted in case he died, even down to letters for my mum to just sign but he saved it all on a floppy disc - it was 25 years ago_ and password protected it  but forget to give anyone the password! we did manage to guess it thankfully)
