Same mentality as my aunt's father, who asked at his wife's wake if anyone knew of a woman he could replace her with. When some objected to his starting a search before she was in the ground, he replied:"Boys, she's just as dead tonight as she will ever be."
It is called callousness or in PC--insensitivity.

“Well, good gosh a’mighty! She’s dead as she’ll ever be, ain’t she? Well, ain’t she?” - Rucker Blakeslee, in the book ‘Cold Sassy Tree’, in reference to Miss Mattie Lou, his recently deceased wife. Seems like your aunt’s father and he thought alike!!
