If there is an estate, then you would need to use TurboTax BUSINESS to file a form 1041.

If there is not an estate and this is just the final return, then you would file the return as normal and mark that they are deceased.  In the personal info section, you will be asked if any of these apply, one of the options will be that the person is deceased.  Put a check mark in that box and then enter their documents like you would for any other tax return.
