However, conscious life may actually have no end as we are not there to be aware of the end of awareness in the first place...
Like going to sleep but without the dream--or the waking up? Don't fight forces, use them R. Buckminster Fuller.

Like going to sleep but without the dream--or the waking up?
I don't think consciousness ends at death, but I think "self" consciousness ends at death...
The question then is: what is this consciousness that isn't the self, and who cares about it? Which I would take as a comment by the self about its own extinction. Yet there is a long historical cataloge of humans experiencing states which are, it seems, real but impossible to vocalise in prose.
And From vegetativeness I died and became animal.
I died from animality and became man.
Then why fear disappearance through death?
Next time I shall die
Bringing forth wings and feathers like angels;
After that, soaring higher than angels -
What you cannot imagine,
I shall be that.
