Without more facts, it is impossible to say. In general, it is not very likely that you are entitled to or can obtain any of his inheritance because it is his separate property.

However, there are a couple of exceptions. For example, if he comingled the stocks with marital investments, then it is possible that you could obtain part of them in the division of property.

You would need to seek qualifed counsel to advise you on the specific facts of your case in order to obtain a more definite answer.
