What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Penna. My wife and I made a will at least 10 years ago. We had two children, Michael about 25 years old, and Kerry about 24 years old. Basically it said if I die first, everything goes to my wife Sarah. If she dies first, everything goes to me . If we were to both die at the same time, car accident etc. the estate would be split between the two children. Now my son Michael, died May 20, 2013. I have NOT changed the will yet. So, the question is, if my wife and I should die at the same time, would our daughter, Kerry get everything, or would she still only get 50% , and the other 50% that my son should have received, go to his 8 year old daughter Brianna. My son Michael was divorced from his wife Julie, about 5 years ago. But I would hope that his daughter Brianna, my granddaughter, would get his share. Thank you, Mike Wargo
