Jar of Questions - Part 11
Who Was That Grandpa? - First Part of May 1999
I feel that I would and need to write this experience that happened to myself and my grandson Preston Clement: age 4 going on 5 yrs. It was about 1:30 PM and John Clement had returned to work at Clement Motors after going to lunch. Preston was waiting for me to go to our house and he always went with me and we had lunch together after washing our selfs in the laundry sink in the service porch. We was extra noisey that day as we left the garage and raced to the back door of our house and I think I won that day and and we was actting up as I took my keys out of my pocket and unlocked the door and Preston raced in to the room and jumped up on the washer so he could wash in the sink and I stood so we both washed at the same time and shared the box of soap. Preston was only 4 yrs old, but his birthday was coming up fast on the 26th of May and we was talking how big a boy he was and jokeing about him becoming a old man of 5 yrs old and he was banging on the washer and washing at the same time and I had my hand wet with soap on them.
At that time I felt another person was with us and I looked to my right and on past Preston and to the doorway and there a lady was looking around the door as she was in the hall but you could see thru her person but she was becoming a whole person as Preston and myself was. After becoming whole and not like a spirit she moved from the looking around the corner position to stand in the area in the hall but where she could look thru the doorway where we could see all of her. She gave us the look of someone that made me think we had disturbed her like a matron in the temple gives us. The be quiet look when we get too noisey in the temple when we're talking before or after a session. She stood there with not a word said and I walked over to the doorway and just stood there looking her in the face and into her eyes. She looked at Preston probably 2 different times for a moment each time then back to me again. I said not one word but tryed to figure out what was happening. She had on a pure white dress with skirt to the floor but there was a very faint light blue dove shaped dot design pattern on the dress. (Covered her neck.) The dress was like a temple dress. Other wise, as I stood there with wet hands and arms I wondered if she was going to speak but she didn't say a word. I wondered if I was supposed to know her. She looked familier but then she didn't. She was about 30-40 yrs or had that look enyways. She was the same height as myself. I just kept staring at her as I stood about 4 ft away from her in the hall and I was just inside the service or laundry room. I didn't look at Preston behind me on the washer but I could feel him looking at both of us and being very quite. Finally she turned down the hall toward the kitchen. I stepped forward into the hall which was only about 2 steps but she was gone. Not a sign of her and no sound at all. I looked into the bedrooms but she was not there either. I went back to the laundry room and looked at Preston just sitting there on top of the washer with a questionable look on his face. And he spoke first and asked who was that Grandpa? I answered with I really don't know who it was Preston, but she's gone now. Maybe we'll find out some day! She did seem like a nice person, and we sure was making a lot of loud noise, weren't we? Maybe we was bothering them or her. We washed off the soap on our hands and arms and went into the kitchen to make and eat our lunch.
I'd still like to know why she was here and why did we get to see her. Was she checking on us? Was she Preston's guardian angel? There is a lot of questions. That night I asked Joan if she had felt and hear other beings in our house after we went to bed and thru the night and sometimes even the day time when we were alone and its quite. She said yes, she had felt and heard these things. And she asked why did I ask and I told her about the visit Preston and I had from this nice lady that seemed upset by all the noise we was making. Oh well. I guess someday we will find out why and how come. When we do find out more about this great plan as we work ourself thru life and prepare ourselfs for the next great thing. Let's just hope we will someday be all there together. But you know! I wonder who she was and why was she here?
4/2/2000 - It was my mother! Emily Maud Clement
After looking at some of her early pictures and listening to conference today and one of the speakers mentioned that some of us who are lucky/blessed enough to have a loved one resurrected from the grave and receive a visit from them would notice them in the prime time of their life and in good health. She had lost a lot of weight and really looked great. I still don't understand why but she was here and Preston and I can testifie to that. Although I doubt if Preston even remembers it happened.

And as Preston asked, who was that Grandpa?
Added later: Preston did say, and I'm sure he seen his great grandma first, "She came out of the smoke. Who was that Grandpa?"
