You need to check the eligibility rules for Social Security to be sure, but I think you have to have been married to the guy when he was working and contributing to SS for at least 10 years. Then you are eligible to receive a percentage of his benefits on his death. There are also disability benefits of his that you can tap. It would be worth a call to your Social Security office. If you are still legally married, you are still the benefiting spouse. But don't assume anything. Make sure the records clearly indicate that you will benefit, and do what you can to correct them if they do not. Make sure they know who you are and where you are so they know where to send your share (when your dear husband departs us!)
