My mom still lived in the home until she got ill and passed away a year ago. Now, my mom has a sister , and a brother, am I entitled to my mom's share of the home now that she is no longer living?

The answer depends entirely on who owned/owns the home and on whether the owner(s) had a will when he/she died, and if so, what the terms of that will are. I would need to review the ownership documents and any will in order to provide an answer. (Entitlement to the property is generally not related to having lived in it.)
