I agree that mentioning passing and funerals would go against the light hearted humour of the show. However, Compo's passing was done with amazing humour and dignity.
I feel the brief mentions of a passing reflects reality as people don't dwell on it when dealing with day to day actions (and antics). It is as thougth it is assumed the characters have had deeper conversations bewteen the series which we don't see.
