You should bear in mind that the Marriott Rewards program is totally unrelated to the Marriott Vacation Club (timeshares) and how your timeshare is titled is not a factor in determinining whether your Marriott Reward point total passes to your spouse at death. Both are under the Marriott umbrella and share the Marriott name but are separate and distinct entities.
You should direct your question to the Marriott Rewards program and specifically ask whether your points are transferable at death. If so, you should determine what must be done by you prior to death to ensure this transfer is accomplished at the time of your death. The question is not "if I pass on" but "when I pass on". Unfortunately for us all, there is no "if" related to our mortality.
