If the mother had a will that specified the distribution of her estate and included provisions for her grandchildren or specified that a deceased beneficiary's share goes to their heirs, the wife may inherit. If there was no will and the estate is divided according to state law, the deceased son's share may pass to his children or, if he has none, to his spouse.
