Sure.

In fact, it is the entire grieving part I never honestly understood. If most people genuinely believe that their departed loved ones are in a better place, then it would stand to reason to celebrate the transition rather than the earthly loss.

You don't grieve for the people. You grieve for the broken world view you have in which some temporary things feel permanent, and you now must reorganize that whole view. Cognitive dissonance + love = tears.
