As you have got the meaning of the first,I am trying to give the meaning of the second one - it is more used in legal formal occasions to refer to a dead person and that too in the past participle form. The word which we commonly come across is 'predecease', for example His wife predeceased him, meaning the person dying after his wife's death.

nice explanation
parlance ids way of speaking. So legal parlance means the way of language in legal circle. Business or commercial parlance means- way of speaking in business circle. Common parlance- means how general public speak. In common parlance, we say- died. But in legal and official parlance, this is deceased.
