As  human  beings,  nothing  is  more  frightening  than  the   fear  of  death.  For  the  person  who  is  facing  death,  it  means   the  end  of  life,  total  emptiness,  and  leaving  behind  loved   ones.    At  the  same  time,  family  and  friends  are  struggling   to  come  to  terms  with  their  loss.  Death  is  inescapable,  sol-­ emn,  inevitable.  One  might  say  that  the  whole  meaning  of   life  is  inherently  bound  to  the  inevitability  of  death.
