A lot of pensions have a Life Policy written in to them. These pay out if the recipient dies within a set timescale (my pension scheme is 5 years) but will be reduced by any pension already paid out.
It may be in Chrissa's situation that her husband's pension did not pay a spouses pension but she has been receiving the remainder of the insurance as a monthly pension payment.
