In essence, for you, the world only exists while you are alive. When you are not alive, you are not there to experience your death. There is no uncertain afterlife. There is no heaven. There is no hell, nor is there a limbo. There is no pain or pleasure. There is not even a void or a blackness or a nothingness. You will not perceive anything at all, for your perceptions are a function of your working brain and body. Without those, you are no longer able to perceive.

I cannot answer for all Atheists but personally I think you just die. If you have a decent family they will bury or cremate you...
This is almost a drinking question

I think consciousness ceases to exist at death, so I will be the same "nothing" that I was before birth.
My body will either be cremated or donated to science.

When you die, you stay dead. Remember what it was like a hundred years ago? It's like that.
This scares some people so much they make up stories about a magical fairy granting people eternal life.
We call these stories "religion".

One goes to sleep and does not wake up again. Just like the opossum beside the road.

You die, that's it. Your body decomposes returning the energy that was once your body back into nature via the worms, bugs, etc. that use your body for food and energy.

I stop existing.
My consciousness disappears, and my body eventually rots. And that's OK with me. It's happened for millions of years.
