I have good memories and my family (siblings, niece, nephew etc). And my own mind.

I’ve lived long enough, been around enough sick and dying, seen lots bad things happen....lots of folks die with no family around them (though there was lots in the community)
There are no guarantees involving other people...only what you keep inside yourself you can control.

I’m not afraid of dying, and I’m not afraid of dying alone.

The greatest fear and most damning myth is that being alone is the worst thing that can happen.

It isn’t. There are far far far worse things.

But believing the myth makes you tolerate hell in fear there is something worse.

Your memories really don't count for a lot if you are alone. I would rather croak not surrounded by friends and family, I believe in the celebration of life, I do not want to go out surrounded by Kids and Grandkids, on this we agree.

The issue is who you are and what do you stand for, and does what you stand for have meaning? If what you stand for has meaning, do you want to have it past on?
