Whether or not you would be able to cash the check depends on the exact wording of the pay to the order of line. If it reads "Pay to the order of your wife re: you" you will likely not be able to cash it. Instead, the check should be reissued in the name of your wife's estate and be negotiated by the executor of the estate. If there is not a executor, an attorney can help you determine how to navigate estate laws in your area. But, if the check says "Pay to the order of your wife OR you" or if it says "Pay to the order of your wife" on one line and then your name on the next line, you may be able to cash it, since it is technically payable to either your wife or you.

In most countries you can not do this because it is not legal to cash a check made out to a deceased person. What needs to be done is that the executor of the deceased estate must obtain from a court a grant of probate for the deceased estate and, with is legal document, write to the supplier of the check and ask them to re-issue the check in the name of the deceased heirs.
Not without a Letter of Authority appointing you as the executor of the estate or committing fraud.
An heir cannot cash checks made out to the deceased. The executor of the estate has the ability to cash checks. If the estate has been closed out, it may have to be reopened in order to properly deal with such items.

The person or company the check is made out to. No one else can cash it. The person you wrote it to can endorse the check to someone else so they can cash it.

No. The check must be endorsed by whomever the check is made out to. This will be the insured on the policy. If the spouse was not the named insured on the policy then she cannot legally endorse the check unless he gives her power of attorney or if he is deceased and she is designated as administrator of the estate by the court.
