If he didn't care to protect his name and person properly during his life, we should anyone care now that he's dead?
But aside from the straw manning in the OP, we're talking about whether it can be awkward to have a dead guy helping advertise a product. That's not a logical issue. When you see something, it doesn't pass through your eyes to the "logic" part of the brain and then onto the part that is disconcerted.

I found the commercial weird because it acts like he's alive even though he's dead. It's like those commercials where they get a celebrity look alike to advertise something.

To answer whether it's moral or not you'd have to decide on a basis for morality of course
