No. If the dead person left a will the estate will be distributed according to the will. If the person never made a will then the way the estate is distributed depends on the laws of the country in which you live.
This said, under most legal systems, a wife will have some claim on the estate (along with any surviving children of the diseased).

When someone dies, any debts they leave are paid out of their 'estate' (the money and property they leave behind). You're only responsible for their debts if you had a joint loan or agreement or provided a loan guarantee - you aren't automatically responsible for a husband's, wife's or civil partner's debts.

If I die and did not have a will but my wife had a will would my children get my share of our estate?
Your wife's will has nothing to do with your death - if you don't have a will, you will be subject to the intestacy laws of your state, which will determine who gets what. Now, if you die without a will, your wife will get the lion's share of your estate, so that when she dies, what was yours that became hers becomes part of her estate. If you're at all concerned about what is going to go to your children, call an estate attorney and draft a will.
Your father owns a real estate titled joint tenancy with his daughter if he dies will the estate pass on to his wife or his daughter?
I think the estate will be passed onto his daughter since the real estate entitled joint tenancy with his daughter. The surviving wife will, however, have a very strong case if the father dies intestate (without a will). Get Dad down to a good property lawyer and be prepared to spend $1000 or so. Well worth it, daughter.

If husband dies without a will is wife entitled to the estate?
This depends on the particular state that you live in. This is called the law of intestate succession, and a person that dies without a will is said to have died intestate. It is strictly a matter of state law. However, in virtually all of the states, if the spouse dies without a will, the wife is entitled to a significant portion of the estate, and the rest is then distributed to the children or the siblings, as the case may be.
What happens to a beneficiaries portion if he dies before his mothers estate can be distributed and he has no wife or children?
It goes into his estate. That will then be handled per the jurisdiction's intestacy law. Siblings and parents are next in line.
