My wife died and I signed the mortgage but the loan was in my wife's name. Am I responsible for the loan balance?

If you didn't sign the note then you are not responsible for paying the balance. If the loan isn't paid the bank can take possession of the property by foreclosure. That's why the bank required that you sign the mortgage even if you didn't sign the note. See related question link for more discussion of note and mortgage.
