Explaining death to kids.

So earlier I was having talking to my mom about a family friend who had passed away. She was a great person and has passed suddenly she was an older lady already about 80ish. We were just talking about how nice her funeral was and the great memories she left us with. Well my 5 year old was hearing this and is asking now about death and what it is. I didn't explain it well because now he is crying scared 😭😭 I basically explained that when we get old we pass away and go to heaven. Now he's crying saying he doesn't want to get old & die ... help 😔
