Yes. It is valid until the person makes a new will. That's why when your circumstances change - with marriage, or death of a spouse or divorce, or the birth of children, you need to review your will and see if it still does what you want it to do.

The legal presumption in this case is that the person did not make a new will because he did not want to change it.
