No, powers of attorney are appointments of agents. The agency dies with the person. The responsibility for their affairs transfers to their estate and its administrator.

See the link below for details. Enduring means ongoing. Power of attorney: the person does not have to be a lawyer, but has the power to act on behalf of the person living or dead.
