The money can be used for any of the valid debts of the estate. If there was a will, it probably lists the funeral expenses to be paid first. The estate has to pay off the debts and that is a valid debt. If the estate cannot do so, they distribute as best they can. If the court approves the distribution, the debts are ended.
