Sorry for your loss.

One thing is that you just won't know, as you won't know what was in this relative's heart at the hour of his/her death.

The Lord promised great mercy to all who call upon His name, as reported her from a dialogue with St. Faustina:

Our Lord said to the servant of God, Sr. Faustina: "Unceasingly recite this chaplet that I have taught you. Whover will recite it will receive great mercy at the hour of death ... Priests will recommend it to sinners as a last hope of salvation. Even the most hardened sinner, if he recites this chaplet even once, will receive grace from my infinite mercy. Oh, what graces I will grant souls who will recite this chaplet... By means of it you can ask and obtain anything if what you ask will be compatible with my will.... I want the whole world to know my infinite mercy. I want to give unimaginable graces to those who trust in my mercy...

So hope is not lost...

So all that church stuff is unnecessary and this little chaplet is all you need to get to purgatory/heaven?

Sounds like a real shortcut.
