I don't find this bizarre, rare or unusual. If you've been online long enough (forums, irc, etc) chances are some people who you've interacted/worked with, have passed away.
I can count up to 5 of these cases. Car accidents, cancer, etc... As someone said, c'est la vie
If you haven't written your will yet: you might want to do that soon. It's important.
You might want to write another document about your wishes after your death. Do you want your organs to be donated? (Probably best to talk to close relatives to let them know and carry a donor card); do you care about how your body is disposed of.
You might want to provide instructions for your accounts and data. It would be a shame if all your photos become unavailable after your death.
There are probably services that provide useful checklists for this stuff.
