mourner's
Funeral attendee's possession
Mourner's is the possessive form of mourner—one who grieves for the dead.
It typically modifies nouns in set phrases: a mourner's bench is a front pew in some Protestant churches where those seeking salvation sit during revivals.
A mourner's Kaddish is the Jewish prayer recited by bereaved family members.
