I think my biggest problem with that scene is that we barely even knew the person. Sure, we saw them in flashbacks and such, but there wasn't really an emotional connection built, yet. I felt bad for the people that knew the person, but I think it would have been better if we'd gotten to spend some time with them and formed some sort of attachment.
Off topic: What the heck was up with Mr and Mrs immortal? They're married, and finally meet after almost a lifetime, and then they're like: "Hey. What's up?" It should have been much more emotional, and heartfelt! Even Gears 2 made being married seem more important.
