If the power of attorney expires when my father passed away, who is to sign the quick claim deed to transfer my father’s home ownership and title?

If he did not have an estate plan to direct a non-probate transfer of his home (e.g. a living trust or a beneficiary deed), then a probate may need to be opened in order to transfer his property to his legal beneficiaries. I recommend you consult with an attorney about this process.

Can I represent my deceased mother? How?

Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Eric J. Smith
A will does not have any authority until it is approved by the court through some form of probate. Generally, gifts in Texas wills do split among the beneficiary's children if the the beneficiary predeceases the testator (writer of the will), but it is also possible to write the will in such a way that gifts to beneficiaries who predecease lapse and the children of that beneficiary get nothing. If you feel there is a good chance there is significant property being kept from you, hire a lawyer. That lawyer can file with the probate court requesting the court require your family to produce the will.
