  Over the past year, I assisted a colleague with a WordPress blog. When we set up the site, my colleague was listed as the administrator and her personal email address was used for the account contact.
  Sadly, my colleague suddenly passed away and her email address that was associated with the WordPress account is now defunct.
  There is a group who would like to continue writing for the blog.
  How can we go about updating the administration of the account to include an active email address as the primary contact.
