My wife left on the February 19 meaning she left the house, myself, and our minor children. February 24 my mother died leaving a sizeable inheritance. Is she entitled to any of the inheritance?

Your wife is not entitled to a dime of your inheritance, whether she has left or not. Any inheritance is your separate property and she cannot touch it.
