Am I responsible for my deceased aunt’s bill to a Public Administrator?

I just received a letter from an attorney informing me that my father’s sister passed away 9 years ago and they are “commencing a proceeding to settle the final account of the Public Administrator’s acts and proceedings as Administrator”. What exactly does this mean? It sounds like they are looking to get some money from me. My father is deceased and I am his only child. Is there anything that I could be responsible for concerning his sister?
