I'm very sorry about your loss. The above article won't likely help you unless you know your mom's Apple ID and Apple ID Password, which you likely don't.


Instead for family members, Apple has a specific process you can follow to get their help in unlocking the device. See this link and this is what you're going to need to do --> How to request access to a deceased family member's Apple account - Apple Support
