All the better reason to see them now.

Come on LFC, you can't possibly know that.
I’m saying, assuming there is no afterlife then there is logically nothing to be afraid of. I’m not asserting there is no afterlife.

I've always had my doubts about that, which is why I remained a confirmed bachelor.

Of course. How can you suffer if you are not living?

Death is only tragic to the living.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Well, death is only as tragic to the dead as being a rock is tragic to the rock.

Well, maybe so many will be so eager to haunt you that the stampede gets stuck at the door.

You position assumes that what is important, is *individuals*.
We can (obviously) see, that evolution does not care about individuals, .. the larger universe does not "care" about anything.
Individualism (as a point-of-view) is prevalent in today's culture. That has not always been the case.
It's actually not "depressing", necessarily.
The lesson is, "show them you love them while you have the chance".
The implication that one can make up a comforting reality to live in, is, of course, false.
"I do not fear death. I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and had not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it.”
