More details to this question:
I'm an active duty military member and I'm filing for my mothers green card. I am a citizen, my mother had the impression that the I-102 (Application to replace lost I-94 card) wasn't needed because she has all the stamps in her passport of all her departures and arrivals to and from the US. I just want to make sure I spend the necessary amount for this process.

Your mother has the burden to prove she was inspected and admitted. An I-94 is proof of admission. If she has a legible entry stamp in her passport this will likely be sufficient. If the entry stamp is not legible, you should consider filing the Form I-102. You can read more about family-based immigration at http://myattorneyusa.com/family-immigration.
