I believe you Mark.  My mom mentioned that one time shortly before her Haslett 
apartment building completely burnt down, she felt a pat on her shoulder.  Like 
a pat she'd get from her dad when he would tell her everything would be fine.  
He was there to tell her she would be ok.  She lost everything.  And was the 
last to get out of her apartment before the roof fell in.  I know we get visit 
and have our love ones watching over us.  My dad also has visited my sister.  
So you are not crazy one bit.
