Each person who co-signs a mortgage is equally responsible for paying the mortgage.
If your mother has died then her estate must be probated. The debts of the decedent must be paid before any property can be distributed to the heirs. You need to consult with an attorney who specializes in probate in your area who could review your situation and determine what the obligations are regarding the mortgage.
