PHILLIPS, Circuit Judge:
The deceased claimant Vernie C. Reece was awarded disability benefits for an ulcer and a hernia beginning July 3, 1974. When the Social Security Administration later determined that her disability had ceased, Reece sought and obtained a hearing before an administrative law judge.
