I hope he has a better next life!
And thinking of his family, losing a young person is devastating.

And what is right speech? Abstaining from lying, from divisive speech, from abusive speech, & from idle chatter: This is called right speech.

According to Sotapatti Samyutta, e.g. the suttas SN 55.1 (= SA 835), SN 16-17 (= SA 636),
if one has definite faith (aveccappasaada)
in the Buddha, the Dhamma/Dharma, the Sangha, and noble morality (ariyakanta-siila) (such as the five precepts),

one "is released (parimutto) from hell (niraya), from the realm of animals (tiracchayoniyaa), and from the realm of ghosts (pittivisayaa)";
one "is released from evil rebirth, from woe-realm, from downfall (apaaya-duggati-vinipaataa)" (SN 55.1);
"it is an absolute impossibility that such a person should be reborn in hell, the realm of animals, or in the realm of ghosts (niraya.m vaa tiracchaanayoni.m vaa pittivisaya.m vaa)" (SN 55.16-17). (see pp. 229, 233, in Choong Mun-keat, The Fundamental Teachings of Early Buddhism).

What is the Uncreated?
Sublime & free, what is that obscured Eternity?
It is the Undying, the Bright, the Isle.
It is an Ocean, a Secret: Reality.
Both life and oblivion, it is Nirvāṇa.
