§ 7-a. Date of death benefits. All weekly benefits payable under
section seven of this article shall accrue as of the date of death of
the volunteer ambulance worker. In the event that a person or persons
entitled to weekly benefits shall die before a determination is made on
the merits of their claim, and such determination on the merits is
ultimately in their favor, then all weekly benefits due from the date of
death of the volunteer ambulance worker up to the date of death of the
person or persons entitled to such weekly benefits shall be paid to the
executor or administrator of the estate of such person or persons.
