This is a very delicate situation.  Until you have Letters of Administration, you have no right to enter the hosue.  I assume the girlfried lived with your father.  That makes her a tenant and in sole possessoin fo the property until a court says she isn't in possession any longer.  Until there is an administrtor, no one has the right to evict the girlfriend.

Hire a local probate attorney to help you apply to the court to be named executor of his Will or administrator of his estate.  Then file a case in small claims or justice of the peace court (you do not need an attorney for this), and hire the sheriff to physically remove her.
