[WSBARP] Title held "with survivorship" : what happens if one owner gives interest away but dies 1st?

[Josh Grant]

Client’s  elderly Great Aunt  (GA) in 2012 gave him his home by paying the purchase price.  She put herself and client as grantors “as joint tenants with right of survivorship”. Added to the deed was “Grantees by signing the acceptance below, evidence their intention to acquire said premises as joint tenants with the right of survivor ship, and not as community property or as tenants in common”.

Client believes GA is being influenced by other relatives under a new P of A to defraud GA including changing the title in favor of themselves.
Assuming a P of A for GA deeds the house to themselves now,   and then GA passes away (her health is not good), and client survives her passing, would he own 100% as the survivor under the original JTWROS deed because his joint owner died first?
Would this later dated P of A deed even create a “cloud of title” on client’s house?
Thanks
Josh
