The power of attorney for the mother does not pass on to anyone upon the death of the attorney-in-fact. That power dies along with the son. When a person gives her power of attorney to another person (the attorney-in-fact), that choice is considered so personal that it cannot be passed on to any another person. A good POA will include a provision for an alternate attorney-in-fact to be empowered upon the death of the first person in the same way that a will provides for an alternate executor.
