None of us have ever died, so how can we know what the experience immediately preceding it is like? However, I would imagine that some deaths could be devoid of suffering.

We can watch people die.
We can get a feel for what its like.

I'm not so much afraid of what happens after we die. I'm afraid of what happens before. I don't want go out like some bed-shitter.

Based only on their observable behavior. People pass away after having (apparently) lost consciousness long before. Would you consider that peaceful? This answer should have been self-evident. What kind of response are you looking for? First-hand witness experiences?
