It might be sad, but it is beautiful at the same time. Especially when they are old and the cycle of life continues. I mention on a couple of my other posts how fear of death was one of the final reasons I clung to the hope of there being some greater power.
Since then I've had 6 friends die between the ages of 14 and 28. That's in a span of 6 years, one friend a year....So I completely understand how you feel. The shitty part of atheism is realizing nobody is protecting you, we are on our own... But don't let that get you down, we're here for a short time so make the most of it. Your purpose is not to please some man in the sky but do what YOU want to do. That should be a liberating feeling.
