As I usually do, let me recommend Page Plus as a great prepaid service. They have some basic phones for sale on their website, or you can use just about any Verizon phone, except for a Verizon prepaid phone.
They use Verizon's network, and if your mom uses very few minutes, you can keep a phone active for $10 every four months. This is the service I use for my mom and she has an older Verizon flip phone that was a hand me down from a relative. At least with a flip phone, I know if she closes it the call is disconnected. Yes, she is that bad with a cell phone.

Edit: in case anyone wonders, I am not affiliated with Page Plus in any way, I just think they have the best deal going for people who need Verizon service. Just wanted everyone to know that I don't get paid for promoting them. I wish I did.
If you do go with Page Plus I highly recommend you pick up an LG 8360.

I've had mine going on two years and it's rock-solid.
