I can't think of a direct way to derive an adjective from "grief", but "grief" is a noun form of the verb "grieve", and you can derive a participle from the verb by adding "-ing", giving "grieving", then that can be used as an adjective, as for example in "the grieving widow" (meaning "the widow who is/was grieving"). Another possibility is the compound "grief-filled".
