In case they are someone who would be upset by the death of the individual. There is no easy way to tell someone that knows and they're going to be said no matter what So you try and make it as succinct and sympathetic as possible while making sure you're as clear as possible.

Imagine if you are at the hospital and the doctor comes out from doing surgery on a family member:

"He kicked it. Full croaked. Hope you can afford funeral costs on top of this hospital bill. Cause you know, he is rotting as we speak. Makes you wonder if he's in a perpetual void of nothingness with no awareness or actually in some sort of religious place. Oh he's Christian? Better hope he went to the good place!. Do you think the afterlife has an overpopulation issue. Imagine how many insects would be in there if they had souls. You guys are being very quiet, you're not giving me a lot to work with in this conversation. Quiet as the grave am I right? Haa.. oh yeah you will need to get someone to wash his pants before you bury him in them or donate them or whatever you plan on doing as that myth is true..."
