Re: inheritance
If you're the executor of your deceased husband's estate and named as such in his will, then, yes, you're obligated to collect up the assets belonging to the estate, pay the bills chargeable to it and make whatever distributions to the named beneficiaries(including yourself)out of whatever is left(if anything).
