I was with each of my atheist parents when they died. My mother told me, in her last hours, "Don't worry about dying, it's not so bad." Daddy kept patting my hand and saying, "It's all right, it's all right." They each had said they had no fear of death, and certainly died as though that had been the full truth. They came from not-being, they had a span of life, they returned to not-being. I wish people understood that this is not a terrible thing. It is very dignified.

My atheist grandfather's last words were, "The jig is up."
