Mother leaves will to son but son dies does his spouse have any rights to property?
If the mother's will was probated and the son died AFTER his mother then the property is in the son's estate. His estate would need to be probated. The property would pass to his heirs under the terms of his will or according to the state laws of intestacy. Generally, a surviving spouse is entitled to a portion, if not all, of her husband's estate. You can check your state laws at the related question link below. If the son died before his mother, the property would pass according to his mother's will or the state laws of intestacy as his mother's intestate property.
Your mom passed away 3 years ago what information do you need to have to obtain her will?
I am sorry for your loss. If your mom died 3 years ago, the will has more than likely already been probated. You need to contact probate court for the county in which your mother died; they will tell you what you need to know. If for some reason the will has not yet been probated, then something has gone very wrong. Your mother's property was probably divided by probate court with the assumption that she died intestate (without a will). With or without a will, her property went through the probate court system. A will just makes that process a little more orderly, and things follow the testator's wishes provided they are within the law.

If your father died in 1979 without a will and your mother is still alive and you are the only child who gets what?
Your state laws will have determined the "intestate succession" of your father's estate, absent a will, meaning the law divided the property. Some states give the entire estate to the surviving spouse; others divide it with the children, meaning the minor children may have received half the father's estate "in trust". Look up your state "intestate succession" and visit the courthouse where the father's estate was probated in 1979 to see how it was distributed. If it wasn't properly probated, you will need an attorney to figure out what rights you may have.
