Only income earned between the beginning of the year and the date of death should be reported on the final return of the deceased person.
If income was received on their behalf after death, it would be reported on the return of the person actually receiving the income (beneficiary).
Here's more info on Filing Taxes For Deceased Persons.
Sorry for your loss.
