Yes, if an estate needs to be opened. Often, it does not. Whether it does in your case depends on whether or not there were assets titled in the father's name alone. This is relatively unusual. If there is a Will, it provides for the order of priority in acting as PR. If there is no Will, then State law does so.

You can sign a Revocable Trust and put assets in the name of your trust that you want to go to your child. If you leave all to husband he can do whatever he wants if you predecease him, including give all to a new spouse. Anything joint will also pass to spouse and again he can do with as he pleases after your death.

You can execute a Codicil which is a modification/amendment to the original Will. This will accomplish your goal without having to redo your entire Will. However, a Codicil has to be executed with the same formalities as a Last Will and Testament. You should use a lawyer.
