Hello charlene:

Nahh, you don't lose anything. Call up the insurance company who had the policy and make your claim.

If she had a life insurance policy on herself, that would pay on her death, then all you need to do is contact the insurance company and provide a death certificate and they will send the payment. It can be years latter.

If she was paying on a policy on you, and stopped paying, it would have went into a paid up policy that would stay in effect for a long time.

Either way you merely contact the insurance company.
