met their maker
Ceased to exist
Met their maker means died, with the implication of facing God or a divine judge after death.
The phrase carries a slightly old-fashioned or darkly humorous tone: The old gunslinger finally met his maker.
It can suggest someone got what was coming to them: The villain met his maker in the final act.
