Having watched people around the time of their death and "seen" passages into "the whatever" here are my some salient observations.
My father passed - traveled through a spiral of light - which was his EMF electromagnetic field and met his deceased family members - or resurrected a memory in which he hung out for a time. Later I "saw" him dressed in foul-weather gear on a 4 masted schooner at the helm. He did love sailing while alive. And he appeared to me x3 after his body passed, 2 times within days of his passing and 9 month afterwards. the first two times he said bone-head things that were not helpful to me at all, characteristic of his personality. The last time he asked for my forgiveness and I gave it, gladly.
