Saying good bye

I just got back from the viewing for my stepdad, who died this last Saturday. Almost immediately, when I was looking at him laying there in the casket, I could have swore I saw his chest move, as if he were breathing. I was also looking at his face, focusing on his eyes for some reason, and then I could have sworn I saw his eyelashes fluttering, as if he were trying to open his eyes. I saw his chest moving several more times throughout our visit.

While driving home, I mentioned it to my boys, and my youngest son said he kept seeing the same thing too. Except that he didn't see the eyelashes fluttering, but he did see movement in the cheeks. I really think he wanted us to know he was there with us all. And then when just before I pulled into a place to get something to eat, I felt something on the back of my neck. It was kind of a warm/cool sensation, like how muscle rubs feel. It didn't stay there for long, just enough for me to know he was with us

I'm sorry for your loss. I'm sure he was coming by to say goodbye and I'm really okay. I had the same thing happen to me when my 20 year old brother was buried 35 years ago. I was the last of my siblings to arrive at the funeral home. As soon as I walked up to the casket, I swear I saw him sigh as if in relief that we were all accounted for. I've never encountered anything like this since.

I was quite shaken and walked over to the corner where my three of my brothers were standing. I felt people coming up close behind me offering comfort and sympathy but when I turned to see who was there, no one was within 20 feet of me.

Thank you

My stepdad and I finally got to have a close relationship with each other, after I started helping take care of him these past few months. His health had been deteriorating pretty fast, so we knew it was only a matter of time. Though I will miss him, I'm also glad that he is finally no longer in pain.
