Replicating the whole "21 grams" thing has been very difficult - soooo, probably not true. Everything does shut down, of course, and so, based on the body's position, it might start emptying fluids. The act of dying (shutting down all function) doesn't change the weight though. It's the same thing about any appliance - it can have electricity running through it or not, but that won't change its mass.
The dying process, however... yeah, most old people lose a whole bunch of weight.
G'luck!

William the Conquerer's body bloated and blew up after he died. You can be sure people were teary-eyed at the funeral.

No, because he ceases to be a man.

..... before or after he decomposes?
Gasses do sometimes build up in a body and cause it to seem either heavier or lighter.

Yes. In fact, he loses all of it.
