If your mother otlived your uncle, tne her estate is entitled to her share. A beneficiary does not need to liveuntil probate is closed. Accordingly, you and your siblings (and her surviving spouse, if any) will share in the inheritance. Exactly what that share is depends on whether or not she had a Will or died "intstate"(i.e. without a Will).
