However, sometimes people use words that mean different things to them than what others think, so it’s always wise to ask them to clarify, so we have a better understanding of just what they are trying to convey. Well that’s my experience, for what it’s worth lol.

Yes true and that's when it can get confusing.
For me as I described , their spirit / soul goes to heaven.
Their "essence " , in my mind , is the "person" they were and they stay in your heart .
We do not after all forget our nearest and dearest do we after they pass ?
In my mind , their essence is their personality and everything you loved about them.
( Only my opinion too !)...
But true, we first must determine what exactly we mean by "essence" ...
A lovely word by the way.
