Is your father alive? If so, he can execute a POA. If he's not alive, then you need to probate his will, and have the court issue letters testamentary.

If your father is deceased, the Power of Attorney is invalid. You will need to probate the will in the county where he resided when he died.

Feel free to ask any additional questions.
