Some members of my family have shared stories about Robert (stories that are too scared to share in this context) that testify of this very truth from Elder Faust. I am feeling more and more as time passes that Robert is doing well. I feel he is busily engaged in the work of our Father in Heaven, and I know he knows of our love for him.
Reading this quote again makes me so grateful that he is mindful of us, and I am certain that he especially watches over his sweet children! I thank my Heavenly Father for these sweet tender mercies! Please don't forget Rob. I'd still love to have your stories! If you've have sacred experiences with Robert since his passing, I will treasure them, and keep them privately for our family!!!!! Please share!
At the April 2006 General Conference, President James E. Faust, quoting Joseph F. Smith, confirmed,
"In ancient and modern times angels have appeared and given instruction, warnings, and direction, which benefited the people they visited. We do not consciously realize the extent to which ministering angels affect our lives. President Joseph F. Smith said, “In like manner our fathers and mothers, brothers, sisters and friends who have passed away from this earth, having been faithful, and worthy to enjoy these rights and privileges, may have a mission given them to visit their relatives and friends upon the earth again, bringing from the divine Presence messages of love, of warning, or reproof and instruction, to those whom they had learned to love in the flesh."
