I don't know about "jokes" about someone's death, but I find that humor is often a good way to cope with death-related grief. I've always said that when I die, I want my friends and family to have a few drinks, tell some funny stories about my life, and try to celebrate my life rather than mourn my death. Not that I'll really care, I'll be dead...

If a laugh is what gets you through it, I don't see any problem with telling a joke. But if it's just taking cheap shots at a dead guy, I think that's kind of tasteless.
