As between those two, it goes to daughter.
Re: intestate succession
There is a procedure for "small estates" (under $100,000) whereby the successors in interest (in this case the daughter) can obtain the assets by an affidavit/declaration.
My office assists clients with this process and I would be happy to speak further with you about this.

The estate goes to the daughter. There is a simplified probate procedure for small estates under $100,000.
