Did your mom leave a will ? If so, on it, did she convey the title of the property to you?

Normally all you have to do is to take an original of the death certificate and file it with the Registrar of Deeds. They will tell you if you need to do anything different.

so having my mom's name and mine on this deed all I would need to do is go to the deeds office with a death certifacate to prove she passed on and have a new deed made?
