Can a person who has durable power of attorney for an individual change that persons will after their death?

[Edit]

Answer

Absolutely no. A POA is extinguished upon the death of the person who executed it. No one may make changes to a will after the death of the testator. You can't sign for someone who is dead. That would constitute a fraudulant act.
