Welcome to BYC. Sorry for your loss. Unfortunately the 2 remaining hens may be carriers of the disease which may infect any new chickens you get later. If it was a respiratory disease, this is especially true. There are many infectious diseases in chickens, and not knowing what exactly they had, I would probably cull the 2 chickens. Then I would clean and wait several weeks to get healthy new chickens. By then the disease should be gone.
