Since you have a Will it the answer depends on the exact language of your Will.

Whenever a major change event occurs (ex. a person named in the will predeceases you) it is a good idea to review the will with an attorney and (if needed) redraft a Will to insure that everything is as you want it.

I am a Texas Lawyer and can draft wills for clients across the State of Texas and can help you with this matter.
