It's both reasonable and customary for executors to receive some compensation for their services, particularly if they're not close family or friends of the deceased. Normally they wouldn't bill the beneficiary, they'd simply deduct their fees and expenses from the proceeds of the estate.

Executor's fees are set by statute in most jurisdictions.
