Will a widow woman be rewarded in the hereafter?

It's always stated that a women, whose young son died, will be rewarded in the hereafter but what about a widow woman? Is there any reward or goodnews for her in the hereafter?

Dear Brother / Sister,

That those whose child die receive reward is because children intercede for their parents and that their parents show patience. If she bears it patiently, a woman whose husband dies will also receive the reward for her patience, too, God willing.
