What, exactly, is meant by "widow's pension?" Without further information that is impossible to answer. It all depends on the provisions of the particular pension plan or system which is paying you.
If you are currently entitled to this pension by virtue of being married to the deceased who earned this pension during his lifetime, as his surviving widow, you will probably not have to forfeit it.
However, if you are collecting it solely by virtue of the fact that is a subsistence income meant as support for the Survivor of a prematurely deceased breadwinner, then you may have to forfeit it once you re-marry and, assumedly, become financially whole again.
All pension and annuity plans are different and you must consult with an attorney who practices in this specialized area for a definitive answer.

Most benefits end when a person remarries but depends on how the payment was structured by the deceased. If the pension is one that was intended to go to that person, without any strings attached, then she doesn't lose the pension.. in the aspect of it being from a govt entity, more than likely, after marriage, it ends.. The best thing to do is check with your coordinator of the benefit you are receiving to insure that it will continue or it will stop.. Best to be sure..
