Do widows of General motors employees who remarry still receive the late employee's pension?

My mom is planning on getting married and is receiving a pension from her late husband who was a retired general motors employee. I'm trying to advise her it might not be the best idea. also could you supply a 800 number or web site that I could show her. Thank you very much

Each pension plan is a little different; there will be differences even between the various GM plans. I'd try contacting the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation for starters. They're the government subsidiary that insures pension plans (kind of like how the FDIC insures your bank account). They might not have all the info you need--- they're really only the "experts" on plans that have gone into trusteeship (the plan has ended and is in a payout-only phase, or the company has "dumped" the plan in a bankruptcy) but they can point you to the right resources on pension law in general and probably even provide a contact within GM for your mom to talk to.
