I believe that their job here on Earth was completed. We may not fully understand what that job was now, but maybe in time you would. Only God knows how long we are to be here on Earth and once we complete what he wants us here for, he calls us home.

Too many people continue to have children in environments where they can't possibly flourish. This was even true in the US before the advent of modern medicine. People had many children, like 10 or more, so that 1 or 2 might actually grow to adulthood. There was no adequate birth control. And children and the elderly are the weakest members of society.

Its because god loves good people and wants them to be with him. so the good people die young.
