In your case, no, the proceeds will not be included in the estate of the decedent. Since you were the named beneficiary the proceeds pass directly to you. Of course, upon your death they will be included in your estate. Whether or not a judgment against your husband will allow the other party to go after your assets is obviously a more complicated question. But the life insurance is not part of his estate.

What happens to homes when parents are deceased and still owe the bank?

In some cases the loan customers would have some type of insurance that would protect the deceased persons family in case of his unexpected demise. If so the insurance proceeds would be used to pay off the mortgage and the family members would retain the house. If that is not the case then, the bank can ask the survivors of the deceased to pay off the loan. Which if they fail, the bank can take posession of the home, sell it and recover its loan amount.

What will happened to the insurance member if the owner of the insurance company commit suicide?

An Insurance company cant commit suicide. So, I am not sure what you are trying to ask here. If you are asking about, what would happen if the insurance policy holder commits suicide? In that case too, nothing will happen. The insurance company will not pay any money to the deceased persons family. Insurance claims can be made only if death occurs by accident or natural causes. Not suicide.
