This info was related to me as a child by my grandma whose husband had died a few months. She told me that she had been crying for many months and grieving over her husband. One night, while crying, she turned over in bed and saw my grandpa who was dressed in white and wearing a long white robe and she couldn't see his feet. She told me that his lips didn't move but she heard him say "in her head" that he was OK and happy to be with his family and not to cry for him anymore. This lasted for a minute or less. She stated that this assured her there was more to life than this and she would be joining him later. This has been the only "ghost story" in our family but a very special one especially for my grandma.
