Did she have a will? It may not be yours. If there is a will, it has to be probated and the named executor appointed. If there is no will, then an administrator from among the appropriate heirs has to be appointed. The executor/administrator receives documents from the probate court attesting to that person's authority to act for the estate. The executor/administrator takes those documents and a death certificate (and any other things the bank wants) to the bank and arranges to withdraw some or all the funds. The bank will issue a check payable to the estate of your mother not to you or anyone else directly.

How do you put your money order in your mother's checking account?

Money orders are a major source of fraudulent transactions, so you may find that your mother's bank will not allow you to deposit a money order made payable to you into her checking account. You should ask the bank if they will allow it and what requirements they have if they do allow it. They will likely request that both you and your mother be present, sign the check in front of the teller, and provide photo ID. If the money order is still blank on the front (i.e. no name is written in the "pay to the order of:" line), you can simplify things by making it payable to your mother and allowing her to sign and deposit it.
