remembrancer
One who recalls
A remembrancer is someone or something that serves as a reminder.
The word is formal or literary: The photograph was a remembrancer of happier times.
In British government, certain officials bear the title Remembrancer—most notably the City Remembrancer, who represents the City of London's interests in Parliament and at ceremonial occasions.
