Yes. Depending on where you live different forms need to be filled in and signed by the appropriate parties, and there may be fees for this. Normally you should speak to a solicitor who can help get this done.
You don't, only the owners of the property can change the deed. In this case, the executor of the estate will have to change the title.
You don't change the name on the original deed. You now have a deed from the other grantee in your original deed. Therefore, you have acquired your title to the property in two deeds.
A deed is the legal document that transfers title to the property. If you have a deed that names you as the grantee then you have title to the premises.

Generally, a lost deed will not cause a problem as long as the deed was filed in the land records office. A deed is executed to transfer ownership of property to the grantee. Recording the deed in the land records provides permanent proof of the transfer of ownership. In a subsequent sale of the property the original deed does not have to be produced since the title will be checked in the land records. The recorded copy of the deed will suffice as proof of ownership. Once a deed has been recorded you can obtain a copy for a nominal fee. The only time a lost deed can cause a problem is when it was not recorded. See link.How_long_is_an_unrecorded_deed_valid
