Obi-Wan Kenobi, the famed Jedi Knight, was about 57 when he made his final stand against Darth Vader in 'Star Wars: A New Hope'. It's a poignant scene that marks the end of a key character from the franchise, but also the beginning of a new era.
Obi-Wan Kenobi met his noble end at the hands of Darth Vader in 'Star Wars: A New Hope'. Determining his age at that pivotal moment, we need to go back to the prequels. If we consider 'Star Wars: The Phantom Menace', Obi-Wan was around 25 years old. Then we look at the time gap till 'Star Wars: A New Hope' which is about 32 years.
Hence, rough calculation puts him around 57 when he died. Yet, the legacy he left behind as a Jedi Knight, the sacrifices he made, and the role he had in shaping the events, notably training Anakin and later Luke, make him a timeless character in the Star Wars saga.

So what if you're formidable or filthy rich? Don't you dare get cocky with me.
I'm Cassian York. I can save your life, and I can end it, too!
Three years after I died, my mother sent me twenty dollars for living expenses.
Three years before that—the first time I ever asked my family for money—she said to me, offhand, "Sometimes I think you're just putting on an act. What's so unsanitary about a thirty-cent boxed meal? And why can't you wear a five-dollar down jacket? Face it, you're just more high-maintenance than your little brother."
Later, when I needed twenty dollars to buy some cheap medicine for my stomachache, she blocked me immediately and cut off all contact—along with every relative we had.
"Don't contact me anymore. I'm clearly not a good mother. I can't afford to give my son a life of luxury."
But for my younger brother, who had just started high school, she spared no expense—renting him a three-bedroom apartment. Even the family dog got its own room.
In the end, on the day my brother became the top scorer in the state, she finally remembered me. She took me off her block list and transferred twenty dollars.
"It's only twenty dollars. Was it really worth giving your family the silent treatment for three whole years?"
What she never knew was this—
On the night my stomach ruptured, three years ago, I had already died. I couldn't afford to go to the hospital. I froze to death in the snow.

In Star Wars', Obi Wan's decision to let Darth Vader kill him wasn't defeat so much as it was a prophet combination of spiritual competence and sober strategic thinking; Ewan thought that when he died, since he would still be able to direct Luke through an occurrence consciousness which asked no distance questions (this is what is meant by becoming a Force Ghost -The ghost goes with Harrison Ford as he dies), there might yet be hope for the future.
Not only did his death help to further consolidate Luke's conviction to fight against the Dark Force, but it also enabled Obi Wan to transcend his physical form and become an enduring mentor. With the sacrifice the story had now taken a general direction, paving way for developments one must make later according to logic and judgements of prudence, but it was also proof of how wise his heart could be under such pressure.

By doing so, he becomes one with the Force and his spirit remains present to guide Luke, the last hope for the Rebellion.
