The Quartet was performed shortly after his death, a beautiful piece, but unlike most of his works, very peaceful, a sort of farewell to life. One day before his departure from life, he signed a contract for publication of his Twelve Pieces for Cello and Piano and the String Quartet with Editions Bim, a Swiss Publishing Company. The works were published in Switzerland in 2010.

The lack of ceremony of her departure from life it details resonated with the estrangement of their marriage, which saw his growing indifference matched by her unpredictable attempts at independence.J. C. Brown, A Journey into Thomas Hardy's Poetry (London 1989) p. 125 The resulting bitterness infusing Hardy's feelings was one of the motivations behind his subsequent pilgrimage to the places where he and Emma had first met, to recapture something of those happier times in his poetry. "Beeny Cliff" is one such poem.

Shortly after his incarceration began, Ferguson complained about his treatment, claiming correction officers attacked him with milk crates and a fire extinguisher, while depriving him of necessities like soap and antiperspirant spray. Ferguson said: "Of course, there is no sympathy for me in the institution. When I suffered and screamed I was told that it was a good sign by the prison guards because they were hoping for my swift departure from life." Later, Ron Kuby argued Ferguson had been a frequent target of harassment at the Nassau County jail, and requested the United States Department of Justice intervene to ensure Ferguson's safety.

Ugly Kid Joe disbanded in 1997. Drummer Shannon Larkin has been a member of Godsmack since 2002, while lead vocalist Whitfield Crane took the then vacant vocalist spot for New York City rock band Life of Agony whose former singer Keith Caputo had left the group in 1997. After his quick departure from Life of Agony, Crane collaborated with some Soulfly members on a new project called Medication (1999–2003) and Godsmack members on Another Animal (2006–2009). In 2005, an unreleased video for "Bicycle Wheels" was made public onto the Ugly Kid Joe forum site (created in January 2004 by J.Goldman, aka DMJ, a fan from Israël).

In the later Śatapatha Brāhmana, both a primordial bull and Mánu's wife Manāvī are sacrificed by the demi-gods Asuras. According to Lincoln, this could represent an independent variant of the original myth, with the figure of Yama laying behind that of Manāvī. Invoked in funeral hymns of the Rigveda, Yama is depicted as the first man to die, the one who established the path towards death after he freely chose his own departure from life. Although his realm was originally associated with feasting, beauty and happiness, Yama was gradually portrayed as a horrific being and the ruler of the Otherworld in the epic and puranic traditions.
