If you signed as a responsible person on her accounts then you could be. If you received assets from her you could be responsible up to the value of the assets that you recently received. If the answer to both of those questions is "no," the you cannot be held responsible. If you answered "yes" to either or both, you should seek legal counsel.

Can I get control over my father's estate if I live in a different estate than he does?

Dara J. Goldsmith
Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
It depends upon a number of factors, including but not limited to the following: Whether he left a Will naming you as his personal representative. If he left a Will naming you, the answer is probably yes, assuming you meet all state law requirement. If he names another person, then the answer is probably not. If he did not leave a Will, it again depends upon state law. In Nevada, a personal representative who is not named in a Will cannot serve without an in state co-personal representative. Some states do not have a residency requirement.

Is there a form that allows one child to make decisions or a letter and does it need to be notarized?

If your father died without a will, it is possible you can wrap up his affairs with what is known as a small estate affidavit. If his assets were worth $50,000.00 or less (not including his homestead), this simple procedure will allow you to transfer title of his assets to his heirs. I recommend consulting a local attorney for more information about this option.
