What would you say if someone told you that a person you knew “had a good death”?

I didn't understand that until my mother died on cancer. She didn't have a good death.
The sad truth, we will all die. Some of us will die in sleep without pain others will suffer over months until it's finally over. Personally I prefer the first option. In very abstract terms it's a good death.

[Skyros]

I’m very sorry for your loss. We shouldn’t have to lose our parents when we’re this young. I’m just 4 years older than you so it’s not a big deal.

I would get flashbacks to that movie "The Last Samurai" which I think is the only time I've ever heard that phrase and then I'd wonder if I traveled back in time to when Samurai or Vikings were wandering around the Earth

[Skyros]

I was thinking the same thing.

Fast not lingering. Relatively painless. Died with dignity. Did not dishonor themselves.

Die like that and I would say that person had a good death.

I don't know what I'd say. I'd probably think however that they faced death with grace, dignity, peace, and courage.
