Was Jay Sonza Correct?

Netizen's Comment: 

Was Jay Sonza correct when he said that when using the phrase "one is in a better place" it meant that the person has died?

Response:

Well, according to Mela Franco Habijan, Directress at Gentle Angels School and an Ateneo de Manila alumna, Sonza should be ashamed of himself because Leni Robredo’s use of the phrase “You are in a good place now” while greeting Kim Chiu on her birthday because the VP was correct.

This is also echoed by another pro-Duterte and former rebel named Joy Saguino in his latest FB post. “[He is] in a good place…” means a person is well and optimistic. It refers to a person’s state of mind vs “[He is] in a better place…” which means a person has died. Look at the words, not the color.
