Kind of hard to tell. Even if the dealership isn't obligated to give anything back, it would probably just be a decent goodwill gesture for the dealership to reverse the transaction. If I were the family then I probably wouldn't even ask though. I would just sell the ATV for what I can and cut my losses.

This.

Hell, I'd think that may actually work out for them in the long run. If I were them I'd have bought it back for the absolute most I could, maybe even have lost a dollar or two on the deal. They could probably work the numbers and file it under some form of charitable or public relations expense.

I would've kept up with the family and when the time came, I would send a massive arrangement to his wake/funeral. Word of mouth like that is hard to come by - "you know they helped when grandpa got sick and spent all that money. They are good people. I think I'll buy my next bike from them and I'll tell all my buddies about them too."
