SS payments end at your death.

Your spouse can get it, yes?


The surviving spouse gets the higher of their own SS benefit or the deceased's benefit.

I don't really consider a surviving spouse an heir. It's more like a surviving partner. The family unit endures even after some of it departs.

"The two shall be as one."
