Speaking as a person who's mother died recently, I'd say just being there and shaking hands with everyone at the lineup and a heartfelt comment or two is all that's required. Hugging someone close is acceptable.
Trying to get too talkative or generous just gets abrasive, nobody will care how much you bring. If you're a relative, it can be a big boost to the family just being there.
