Inherited LLC Interest - Step-up Basis

Two spouses each own 50% in a Rental LLC.  The LLC has filed 1065's since inception.  Each spouse receives a K-1 and both K-1's are reported on the Joint tax returns.  When one spouse dies and the surviving spouse inherits the  deceased spouse 50% share, can the surviving spouse get a step-up basis on the inherited 50% interest?
