Just throwing out alternative possibilities.
There are a few cultures out there that celebrate natural deaths. I also tend not to feel sad about death I just see it as a part of life. That being said, I haven't had someone close to me die as of yet - I'm lucky.
My father passed away when I was 6 and I hardly cried. It just wasn't sad to me. I knew he wasn't gone forever, and knew he was in the hands of the creator. Sure I missed him and cried on like 4 occasions, but I just accepted it and let it be.
There's nothing wrong with death and nothing wrong with being the odd person not feeling sorrow for an other/self moving on to their/our next portion of being.
I talked with a person recently about my seeming lack of emotion and realized that I have emotion but just express it differently and with a different perspective than most.
