No, if SS benefits was her only income then you do not need to file a return for her.

If she received no taxable income in 2016, then a return does not need to be filed. However, if she has any assets as a part of her estate, then it's possible an estate return would need to be filed. If unsure, check with a licensed tax pro or CPA in your local jurisdiction. Especially if her state taxes her income.
