You must first be certain that what you have is the original (and not a copy) of the Will and that this is the LAST version of the person's Will.

The Will usually appoints an executor who is responsible for carrying out what the Will sets out. The Will should be given to the executor(s) along with the death certificate and all the information you can find relating to the persons bank accounts, shares and property holdings (all that the deceased owned). The executor(s) will then prove the Will in a court of probate and once that has been done and any outstanding taxes and debts have been settled, they will distribute the estate (the dead persons property) as the Will instructed.
