Izzy BLAINE:  I have been very very busy lately, so have not even been reading most of the posts.  Sorry if I have not answered some of your queries. In answer to your question, Izzy, I have to say NO!  I have never seen an angel.  BUT--about a  year or so after my wife and I were married civally, we began taking a church-sponsored class to help us prepare for being sealed together in the Salt Lake Temple.  On the evening that we finished the class, the teacher provided punch and cookies, and as we were sitting around drinking the punch and eating the cookies, in the teacher's basement, I suddenly became aware that a woman was standing directly in front of me.  I could only sense her presence, so don't ask me how I knew it was a woman--I just knew that it was a her, not a him.  She stood there for a moment, and it came through to me that she was one of my immediate ancestors, a woman born in Norway, who had been active in converting her husband and family to Mormonism, and that she was there to show her approval of what we were in process of doing.  I said nothing, just sat there taking it all in.  Later that same night, my wife asked me, "Could you feel that there was an angel present in the room at the teacher's house tonight?"    I said "YES!"  She was  one of my relatives!"   I was amazed she had experienced the same thing, yet neither of us had spoken of it at the time.  That is the closest I have ever come to seeing an angel, Izzy.
