Marital Property. Life Insurance was H's separate property.

On appeal, W challenged the trial court's designation of the proceeds of one of H's life insurance policies as H's separate property and the award of those proceeds to his designated beneficiaries upon his death. Held: Affirmed. Premiums were traceable to H's separate property SSI benefits, and the trial court was free to disregard W's testimony to the contrary.
