Dad passed, but payments made before discharge

My dad passed away a couple months ago. I was managing the payments for the loan under his name from my personal account and had it on autopay, so a couple payments were made after his passing but before I had the death certificate in order to submit it for the loans to be discharged. Will I ever see that money again? All I’ve seen online is to not expect a refund so I thought I’d ask here and see if anyone—unfortunately—had the same situation as me.

And to anyone whose student loans were discharged because a family member passed, I’m so sorry. Thank you for sharing your experiences.
