Family, friends and memories with them. As I grow old, one fear is loosing my mind (both my grandmother's had dementia or Alzheimer's), I think I can deal with pain in the body, but not being me scares me.

I had a strong willed favorite aunt who lost hers well into her eighties. My mother reached 99 and just decided she had enough & willed her own death by stop eating. It still took over 4 months to depart.
