I dunno - I think many of those people cry because, naturally, they're shocked and upset by death, albeit the death of somebody they didn't really know. But I'll agree that some of the eulogising and commemoration after a death can be attention-seeking and sycophantic, eg. barely-casual acquaintances of the person in question who suddenly become their bereaved best friends after the person's death.
