Bereaved person more worried about location of ashes? (7)

I believe the answer is:

mourner

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'bereaved person' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'more worried about location of ashes?' is the wordplay.
'worried' indicates anagramming the letters (worry can mean to interfere with or disturb).
'about' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'location of ashes?' becomes 'urn' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'more' with letters rearranged gives 'moer'.
'moer' placed around 'urn' is 'MOURNER'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for mourner that I've seen before include "Funeral attender" , "One at a funeral" , "Person following the coffin" , "Someone attending a funeral" .)
