When does death of a close love one hit you?

Am I ass for not feeling grief for someone close to me that died Friday night.

This is someone I grown up with since grammar school and I'm kinda mad at myself for not feeling grief

You may not feel it now, but it will hit you.

The day the state trooper informed me of my son's suicide I was shocked, I had just seen my son the night before. The next week with arranging the funeral and stuff with my ex-wife and delivering his Eulogy at his funeral service I was numb and in disbelief. After the funeral service I collapsed and went with my son's friends to have a Fairwell dinner at my son's favorite restaurant where everyone shared stories about my son with me. The next day I woke up and the anger and grief hit me like a 100 mile an hour freight train, then I stayed pissed off and angry for 3 years until I sought grief counseling and PTSD counseling from my military service as well.
