Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Illinois

quit claim survivorship

The grantor, a widow, conveys and quit-claims to claims to herself and two sons as joint tenants with full rights to survivorship and not as tenants in common her home. One son dies before mother and held durable power of attorney for mom. Power of attorney transfers to surviving son. Mother dies-surviving son sells property- does spouse or children of deceased son have any rights to proceeds from sold property? There was a will with all possesions and properties going to sons or their heirs in the event of their death before mom.
