Oregon is not a community property state, therefore the surviving spouse would only be liable for debts that were jointly incurred during the marriage.

That sounds pretty harsh and unnecessary. You may need to consult a lawyer.
Because the property was not owned outright by the deceased persons being willed the property are responsible for the debt attached as well. If they do not want to take the financial responsibility of paying the debt or selling the property they can allow it to be included in the probate procedure and therefore are not responsible for foreclosure or other litigation connected to it. yes, you are responsible otherwise you lose the house you don not get it free just because someone dies. only the person named as heir to the house has to pay. just did this.
If the property is owned by the husband and wife as tenants by the entirety a lien for the debt of one will not affect the property.

New York is not a community property state, solely owed debts are the responsibility of the spouse who incurred such. Assets belonging to the deceased that are not considered exempt under state probate laws will be used to pay outstanding debts according to the priority. The surviving spouse is entitled by law to specific amounts of property and assets that are not subject to probate distribution or creditor action. NY is a TBE state therefore the family home and all belongings, at least one vehicle, death benefits from life insurance policies, some pensions (or a portion thereof)and any joint marital assets or property do not become a part of probate procedure and cannot be attached or incumbered for creditor debt. THEY WILL GO AFTER HIS ESTATE FOR THE MONEY
