Why do older adults fear death more than younger adults?

Because they came, saw how beautiful their life was in retrospection, conquered their own imbalances, and now they want to live longer and enjoy more of this beautiful world.

But, to their dismay, the age has never stopped growing.

At this old age, having realized how they could have lived better, they want to do more of what they did not do when they were young.

However, they know and think every minute about the life of their dear ones in their absence fully knowing that the unwanted death is anytime due and hence they "die every day" in the fear of death more than the younger ones do.

P.S: BTW, I am 45 years old. Am I an "older adult"?.
