Where death delights to help the living

I like this line (it came to me on a listserv; sorry, I wrote it down without the name of person who contributed it and I don’t believe they cited the author), unfortunately the Latin line looks to be a bit long to put over the door to our office building (would be cool though):

Hic locus est ubi mors gaudet succurrere vitae

This is the place where death delights to help the living
