Power of attorney expires upon death. So that wouldn't make any difference.
It is the Personal Representative named in the Will. Without a Will, then it is the surviving spouse. If no spouse, then children, followed by lineal descendants. Then parent, followed by silblings.
Hope that is far enough to go.
