Go in there and take pictures. When the estate is opened, have the judge sign an order compelling your uncle to account for what he took. Meanwhile, go in there and secure any remaining items of value and get the lock changed on the house. You will have to open a probate estate to deal with the house and its contents and any accounts that were titled in your father's name. You should contact a lawyer for that.
