My uncle was the type of person who would give you the shirt off his back if you needed it, he always put others
before himself, especially his family, that's what made him so easy to love.
Along with being my uncle he was also my godfather so we were very close.
When I was 13 he passed away suddenly of an aneurysm. After his memorial service I
was sitting on my parents bed alone thinking and crying when I felt the opposite side of the bed sink in, like
someone sat down next to me. I was a little scared but then it felt like a sense of peace came over me. I wasn't crying
anymore and actually fell asleep with no problem.
A few days later I was at his house playing with my cousins (his
kids) on the top bunk bed when I got this sudden urge to
turn around and look towards the door. When I did this I
was face to face with my uncle for maybe 2 seconds. It
seemed so quick that by the time I realised who/what I was
looking at he was gone. He wasn't solid like you and me but
more of an outline. I could still see all his features
though, like his beard and hat and eyes. I didn't say
anything about this to my family because either they would
think I was crazy or I would upset them.
On 4th of July we all went over to my grandparents house to BBQ and swim.
(They have an above ground pool) BBQ's were something my
uncle loved because it brought the family together. While
the kids were in the pool the adults were on the deck
talking and I noticed my grandma had started crying. I put
my head back in the water to get my hair out of my face and
when I came up I looked across the pool and there standing
maybe 6 ft in front of me was my uncle. He was only there a
couple of seconds then I blinked and he was gone. After
that I finally decided to tell my mom about it to get her
opinion. She said that she thinks he might be trying to
tell me something or he's just letting me know he's ok and
that I should talk to him if I see him like that again. The
only thing is that I have no idea how to talk to him
because it happens so quickly. I haven't seen him since
that pool episode, it's been 7 years.
Only little things happen now and I think it's him playing
jokes like he used to before he passed.
One day I was in my closet deciding what shoes I was going to wear and I
remember looking up on the shelf and seeing my pedicure kit
there but the little foot scrub, that's in the shape of a
foot, was outside the box on the edge of the shelf. I was
going to move it but didn't and went about my business. I
was leaning over my chair to lay some clothes on my bed
when the foot scrub, that was in my closet, fell from above
my head onto the clothes in front of me. I froze for a few
seconds and just looked at it because it kind of freaked me
out then I said "Ha ha very funny uncle Jr." and put it
back.
The most recent thing that happened was when I was on
the phone at night in the living room. It was late and I
didn't want to talk on the phone in my room because my
daughter was sleeping so I sat out in the living room with
everything off but the light above the stove. (Our kitchen
and living room aren't separated by a wall, it's open) I
was on the couch talking to my friend when out of the
corner of my eye I saw a small ball of light on the picture
of the Virgin Mary my mom has on the wall. I thought it was
the reflection from the stove light so I turned to look, I
even moved off the couch. (If it was a reflection when I
moved it also would have moved) but no it wasn't a
reflection, the light stayed right on the picture. It was a
ball maybe a little bigger than a marble making tiny
circles on the picture. I was a little scared because I
didn't know what it was. The person I had on the phone
didn't know what was going on because I was quiet this
entire time. I finally got too freaked out by this light
and went to bed. I told my mom and she didn't know what it
was either.
If anyone has any idea why my uncle appeared to
me those 2 times and what that light was please email me
and let me know.
Thanks for taking time to read this!
