It depends on the terms of the trust. You'll have to read the trust and find out. Sometimes, the benefits pass to the decedent's children. Sometimes, the benefits lapse. Sometimes, they pass to someone completely different.

Who is the beneficiary in a life insurance contract?

The beneficiary is the person to receive the coverage amount when the person covered by the policy dies. In the first instance, the beneficiary is named by the applicant when application for the insurance policy is made. Unless the beneficiary designation is made irrevocable, the insured is free to change the beneficiary at any time until his/her death. Unless some provision of law or contract renders the designation of beneficiary irrevocable, the beneficiary does not have a right to remain as beneficiary and ordinarily cannot contest a subsequent change.
