A Death in the Family, but the feeling is not there.

Yesterday, my Grandfather died. It was sudden, and while he was in poor health, he seemed to be doing alright. It is weird that when I heard the news, I did not feel loss

I am sorry for your mother's loss. You can't force yourself to feel what you don't feel. My grandpa (stepdad's father) died a couple of years ago, and while I was glad he was no longer in pain, I didn't feel a huge sense of loss because I hadn't talked to him in a very long time and we weren't that close.

You have nothing to feel bad about.

You are handling it pretty well, and pretty appropriately. Emotions are a weird thing, especially when it comes to family.
