I think you mean "creditors," those who are owed money. Debtors are the ones who owe the money.

Can husband collect life insurance if wife dies unexpectedly?
If the husband was the named beneficiary of the policy, if the policy was in force at the time of death, and if the cause of death was not excluded by the policy, the general answer is "Yes". If the beneficiary was the estate of the wife, the proceeds are paid to the estate. Then, if the husband was a beneficiary of the estate (either by virtue of a Will naming him as beneficiary, or if no Will, through the laws of intestate succession), he may be entitled to all or a part of the insurance proceeds. If the beneficiary of the life insurance policy was someone other than the husband as of the time of the wife's death, proceeds are payable to that person.

Is life insurance part of an estate?
If the life insurance policy designates that payment is to be made to a beneficiary other than the deceased or to his/her estate, the proceeds pass outside of the estate and do not become an asset of it. Instead, all other things being equal, proceeds are payable to named beneficiaries. Note, though, that in order to collect, the beneficiaries must file a proof of claim and otherwise provide documentation that the insurer requires (such as a death certificate).

What if the executor doesn't pay the beneficiaries of a life insurance policy?
The proceeds of a life insurance policy are paid directly to the beneficiaries without going into the estate of the person. The only way that life insurance proceeds become part of an estate is if the the beneficiary is listed as "Estate of the Insured". In this case any expenses of the estate are to be paid out before the heirs receive a share. If there are beneficiaries on the policy, the life insurance company will pay the beneficiaries directly.
