You have encountered activation lock and without your moms Apple ID or Password, you can't reset the iPad. The only way you can get Apple to assist you is to take a death certificate and something from her estate saying the iPad is now your property to Apple and they may help you. If there's any way you can find the original purchase receipt, that would be truly helpful.
I'm sorry for your loss and good luck to you.
