There is no reason why you should not attend. Non-Catholics can attend Catholic events. Personally, I would recommend that you attend, the Mass would be the Catholic equivalent of the funeral, and the Rosary would be the equivalent of the viewing.

Yes. All worshippers are free to attend services in any church. Updated response - Although it may be an acceptable truth that all worshipers are free to attend services in any church, the obligation for a Catholic is different. Each Catholic shares an obligation to attend Catholic mass on Sunday - The Mass within the Catholic community is the catalyst to receiving Holy Communion, which to a Catholic is a Holy Sacrament. Mass or service at any other Church for any other denomination, though spiritual and holy in its own right, does not allow a Catholic participation in the Consecration of the Holy Eucharist or therefore Holy Communion. Although there is nothing ecumenically wrong for a Catholic to attend a non-Catholic mass, liturgically this obligation to attend mass would not be fulfilled.
You must have a very serious reason not to attend mass on Sundays and Holy Days.
