One version of him, from ancient Greek mythology, is named Thanatos. He was the god of non-violent death. He was depicted as an old man or as a young boy with a gentle demeanor. He was considered kind and was the twin brother to Hypnos. He had sisters named Keres, who were goddesses of violent death.
He would escort the souls of the dead to Charon so that he could transfer them to the underworld. 
They did not find him to be evil, in fact, they simply saw him as inevitable.
