The state of Texas recognizes the surviving spouse as next of kin. For example if you want to obtain medical records and you are not the surviving spouse, you can obtain legal documentation (letter of Administration or Exectrix of the Estate), and this combined with a copy of the death certificate will allow you to acquire copies of medical records.
