Forty years later

It had been coming along time.

Sams plan to trick Michael into jumping into the cage by himself went pretty freaking good. He resurrected the only other Winchester child to be possessed by Michael, and basically just pushed him in and pulled back last minute. Then he had Cas go pull Adam out and send him straight up to heaven.

After that, there wasn't to much difficulty taking over heaven believe it or not. With only two other archangels left, one being Gabriel who completely supported him, heaven practically fell into his lap.

Of course, Dean couldn't join him up there which was unfortunate, but he came down to visit at least once a month. Dean seemed comfortable with his new family made up of Lisa and Ben.

In the end, there was no supernatural cause for Deans death, just a simple gas leak sending the house up in flames.

And as soon as Sam heard the news, he came to collect Dean himself, and they went home together.
