Sad? Maybe. Depending on your life people may or may not remember you, but you yourself is gone.

Granted, the ideas of afterlife and what happens are tied to Deism and Naturalism, but I'm more after what your cultural look on death is, not what might happen afterwords. Is it something to be feared, something we should try to take control over, or is it something we should just let be, whether it is natural or not.
