The gift to the (deceased) spouse of your last surviving parent would lapse and the property will pass under the residuary clause in their will. If there is no residuary clause the property will pass to the next of kin as intestate property. You can check the laws of intestacy for your state at the related question link below. You should seek the advice of an attorney who specializes in probate who can review the will and explain your options for settling the estate.

That depends on whether your parent was married at the time of death and if yes, whether the surviving spouse is also your parent. If the surviving spouse is not also your parent then the estate will be shared 50/50 with the surviving spouse getting half and the surviving children by a first wife sharing the other half. If the surviving spouse is also your parent then the surviving spouse gets 100%. If there is no surviving spouse the children get 100%.It is likely the estate will need to be probated. You should seek advice from an attorney who specializes in probate matters and who can provide up to date information.https://www.thebalance.com/dying-without-a-will-in-florida-3504952

For example, if a parent purchases a life insurance policy and names their child as the beneficiary, the child is a third-party beneficiary. In this case, the insurance company has a contractual obligation to pay the child upon the parent's death, even though the child did not participate in the contract negotiations.

That depends on how the property was titled. If the spouses owned as joint tenants with the right of survivorship or tenants by the entirety (as most married couples do) then you have no claim whatsoever. In that case, the property automatically passed to the surviving spouse. If it happens the property was owned as tenants in common then you may acquire an interest in your deceased parent's half along with the surviving spouse providing the parent didn't leave the property to their surviving spouse by will. First check the tenancy on their deed.
