There will always be somethingness, everythingness, in fact. But yes, death is the end of the writing tablet and there is nothing left to experience.
We can eradicate disease of death though. Maybe someday.
What would we be like at age 500 or so?

Idk, if there was nothing, then you wouldn't feel anything to begin with. You wouldn't even know that you've made it to the other side, because there is no other side. It's just like going to sleep, except you never wake up.

If you were unable to experience the nothingness that existed before your birth than you are unlikely to experience the nothingness after your death. The important thing is that you are alive. You can interact with the world and people around you. You get to experience the human experience.

102:0.1.TO THE unbelieving materialist, man is simply an evolutionary accident. His hopes of survival are strung on a figment of mortal imagination; his fears, loves, longings, and beliefs are but the reaction of the incidental juxtaposition of certain lifeless atoms of matter. No display of energy nor expression of trust can carry him beyond the grave. The devotional labors and inspirational genius of the best of men are doomed to be extinguished by death, the long and lonely night of eternal oblivion and soul extinction. Nameless despair is man's only reward for living and toiling under the temporal sun of mortal existence. Each day of life slowly and surely tightens the grasp of a pitiless doom which a hostile and relentless universe of matter has decreed shall be the crowning insult to everything in human desire which is beautiful, noble, lofty, and good.
---------------
102:0.2.But such is not man's end and eternal destiny; such a vision is but the cry of despair uttered by some wandering soul who has become lost in spiritual darkness, and who bravely struggles on in the face of the mechanistic sophistries of a material philosophy, blinded by the confusion and distortion of a complex learning. And all this doom of darkness and all this destiny of despair are forever dispelled by one brave stretch of faith on the part of the most humble and unlearned of God's children on earth.
------------------------------------------
102:0.3.This saving faith has its birth in the human heart when the moral consciousness of man realizes that human values may be translated in mortal experience from the material to the spiritual, from the human to the divine, from time to eternity.

Well, assuming you are conscious, the only conclusion I can logically come to is that it is indeed nothingness after death because your body dies and the brain stops so the body can't do anything or contain existence in the same way it did before death, but since nothingness is nothing, you can't experience it. So by nature, you will experience again, as we can only measure nothingness by existence. A bit like waking up after anesthesia, someone or something will in time have a realization that they are, and one day it will be you again, but it won't be 'you' per say - or maybe it will be. The next life, or the continuum afterwards accounts for any religious after life, but not specifically any one. It could be any of them. So Pascals wager is essentially true. People who say it will be nothing talk about it still as if its something they can comprehend, like sleeping, but its not. There must be something. Of course, behind the shroud of death, nobody can touch you, you can't refute what doesn't speak back. But its essentially something that each individual will come to know.
