That will depend on the intestacy laws for the jurisdiction. In most cases the estate will be split between the children and the spouse, though the spouse will usually be the trustee for the children's share.

Estrangement between a husband and wife has no effect; if the marriage is still in effect, then his will will determine what's to happen with his estate. If he doesn't have a will (in which case he was a fool), then the state or nation of his nationality will determine what happens.

If he was resident and then dies in the US, but was of a different nationality, then you should contact a lawyer to determine how things are to be distributed. You will need to act quickly; if his family can move the deceased person's assets out of the country, there's not much chance of an American court getting anything back.
