Generally, a certified copy of the Letters of Administration (a document formally appointing you as the Personal Representative of your husband's estate) along with the death certificate without cause of death and your photo ID should be sufficient.

If that is all your son left, you may not need to go to court but you will need to file a Small Estate Affidavit, wait for the judge's signature and find a bank which will accept it.  In any event, we have had independent administrations in Texas since 1843.  Probate here is neither as expensive nor as time consuming as you may imagine.

Basically a question of South Carolina law. However, basic common law would say, does brother have a reason why this should happen? Power of attorney only allows you to do those things that the principal would do if he were able not what you want, or think is right, but what the principal wants.
