Time and physical labor are an amazing way to process grief.

There is a hindu ceremony in India where we build a funeral pyre and light it. Before that, there are prayer ceremonies that happen over a few days (I think). I've always felt that it was designed this way (way back when) to give time and space to the family to grieve. The lighting of the funeral pyre seems like letting go somewhat.
