What other words or phrases do we use instead of saying the word ‘death or that someone has died?

23 April 2019/in News/by Jean

Died
Passed over
Slipped away
Curled up his toes
Popped off
Pegged it
Hit the sack
Moved on
Graduated
United
Taken by the grim reaper
Curtains
Gone away
Transition
Going on
Deceased
Expending
Kicked the bucket
She went to sleep
Passed away
Pushing up the daisies
Gone to heaven
Shuffled off the mortal coil
Homecoming
Popped his clogs
Hit the sack
Gone into the next room
Gone away
Crossed the threshold
Hung up his spurs
Passed to a higher dimension
Passed on
Brown bread
Snuffed it
Part your waggon
Arrived at heaven’s door
No longer with us
Deceased
When his time came
Left us
With the angels
6 foot under
Lost him
Happy release
Dear departed
Promoted
Gone to live with the angels
Heading for higher realms
Passing the final test
Lying in state
The last goodbye
Eternal sleep
Moved on
Gone home
To live in the clouds
Gone to the light
Niverna
Snuffed it
Left his elemental body
Turned to dust

The end
Pegged it
Gone through the pearly gates
Passed over to the other side
Expired
Ceased to be
Climbing to the fjords
Gone to a better place
Ceased to exist
Passed the threshold
Taken his last gasp
Gone to meet his maker
Been called
Gone to live with God
No longer with us
Taken his last breath
The ultimate contribution
Transformed
Passed
Passed on
Passed away
Resting in peace
Eternal rest
Asleep
Demise
Deceased
Departed
Gone
Lost,
Slipped away
Lost her battle
Lost her life,
Succumbed
Gave up the ghost
Didn’t make it
Breathed her last
Went to be with the Lord,
Went to Heaven
Met his Maker
Was called home
In in a better place
He didn’t make it
At rest
We lost him
Expired
Gone into the blue yonder
Taken his final journey
The final curtain call
Extra one
Extra one
Extra one
Extra one
Extra one
Extra one
Extra one
Extra one
Extra one
Extra one
Extra one
Extra one
