My dad has 8 ethereum in a MEW account he forgot about..

My dad recently told me he has 8 ETH tokens he bought 5 years ago in an account he can’t seem to access in MyEthereumWallet.com (edit: I meant to say MyEtherWallet.com) but kept the print out of the address and private key. Apparently he’s tried contacting MEW and there’s no one there to support. I’ve never used MEW myself but I want to help him get access to his money. I have a Coinbase account but I’m not super familiar with how this works. Is there a way to use the keys to transfer the funds to cash out?

Update: I was successful and was very easy to recover. There’s a way to access your wallet using just your private key on the MEW platform without logging in (tho it’s not recommended). Once I accessed it I was able to send all the ETH it to my coinbase account with an address I generated and now I can cash it out or hold on to it for my dad. Can’t wait to tell him tomorrow. Glad he didn’t forget his key.

Thank you all to those who commented below with helpful tips. My curiousity is piqued and going to do more research into Meta Mask.

And to those who DM’d me with uncertified websites for “validating my wallet” (and private key) and acted like you were helping - I enjoyed fucking with you all.. but on a serious note may misfortune follow you around like a plague for the rest of your days.
