What do I do if my mother has passed without signing over a power of attorney?

Estate Planning lawyer at Christine Sabio Socrates Attorney at Law
Even if your mother had signed a power of attorney before she died, it became invalid the moment she passed away. A power of attorney ends at death. At this point, you would need to be appointed executor (if she had a will) or administrator (if she did not have a will) in order to take care of her estate.
