Obviously everyone is different and you can't compare grief of one person to another.

With that said however, Autistic people have higher affective empathy so tend to feel grief deeply and especially when they see it in others. However Autistic people have lower cogitative empathy so aren't always able to express empathy or their emotions to others, some people assume this means Autistic people do not feel empathy or grief and can give Autistic people a hard time for this or pressure to present a certain way can make Autistic people feel uncomfortable.
