i think i saw my grandpa today???

today i went to mcdonalds with my mom and there was a man parked at the dairy queen right across from the mcdonalds and he was waiting on his i guess grandson that was college aged who worked at mickeyds he looked exactly like a spitting image of my grandpa! My mom even thought so and I got a pic of him on my phone-my dad thought it was my grandpa when i showed him the pic! he has a car that favors the car my grandpa had and he had the same clothes my grandpa always wore, looked like he had no teeth, smokin a cigarette everything from the messed up nose to the belt buckle and all-my grandpa passed away Aug. 21, 2007 what do you think of this and what could it be? this is a pic of my real grandpa- http://s247.photobucket.com/albums/gg143/midnite_s...

Update:

i was really close to him and it made me think of how my grandpa would set and wait when i was at my grandparents house and they took me to that shopping center all the time-and he would wait on me and my grandma to come out of a store there or something

Update 2:

i would show a pic but i have to take it off my phone first then i can but its from a motorola razr not the best camera in the world but ill try my mom said the same thing about the "twin"

Update 3:

noo he didnt talk to anyone-he didnt really look anywhere-just lookin around-ill put the pic of him up!! and a dairy queen employee walked right by him and he didnt even act like he was there i watched him drive off and take the guy home i guess.

Update 4:

and he lives i guess in the same city (hampton, va)

Update 5:

im puttin the picture on right now i put a link for photobucket in about 5 mins. i guess please hold on thanks!!!

    That is so funny. My father in law passed away three years ago and about 6 months ago I was going through the drive through at McDonalds and swore I saw my father in law sitting inside the resturant. He had glasses, hat and belly just like my father in law. Maybe God is giving us reminders of our loved ones through McD's LOL. Why didnt you post the pic you took of the man that looked like your grandpa too?

    I have heard to that everyone has a twin out there. I think its called a doppleganger. LOL. But supposedly they arent suppose to live so close to where you live. Who knows!!! The world is a strange place.

    You did see your grandfather today. The man you took a picture of was not him. But sure enough, the grandpa who passed away lives on in your heart and in Heaven and today he came alive to you, and you saw him clearer than day, because you love and miss him so much. Be joyful in the excitement you're feeling. Believe that he's telling you he's alright, and that you are too.

    Can you show us a pic of the man you saw today?

    A lot of old people smoke and don't have teeth. A lot of old people have similar taste in cars/clothes too.

    But he does seem a little too similar to your grandpa. Belt? Then its deffinatly him. Or his twin brother, Who knows he could have a long lost twin. lol.

    Well you saw your grandfather's twin, they say everyone has one. I was walking down the street in Van Nuys CA when I first thought I was looking in a mirror, but I looked down and didn't have the same clothes on that the other me did. We both stopped dead and just looked at each other. I finally said who are you? She told me her name and we went and had coffee. She was born 2 years later than me, and on the other end of the states. She had 5 brothers and sisters (full blood)

    I had two hallf sisters. (Well that's all I knew about at the time.)

    We are both Libra's both born in Oct, but not the same day.

    Talk about weird. I lost her number and I never saw her again but it was one very interesting day.

    can you put the pic of the guy you think was your grandpa on here?? i think you can email the picture from your phone! Anyway, maybe is was just someone who just looked just like him, or maybe it was his ghost!! ohh...creepy! He is probably an angel now!

    Question--Did you see anyone talk to him or acknowlege that he was even there?

  • I know this sounds weird but sometimes they say someone might resemble a person from the past.Its almost like your grandfather who passed away wanted you to see this guy to let you know he is okay.I know it sounds strange but to see someone who looked just like him is out of this world

    its probably just someone who looked like him, but it is always nice to get little reminders of people who have passed away that you love. Keeps you remembering.

    They say that everyone has a twin out there some where. That was probably your grandfather's "twin".

    I believe that everyone has a Gaurdian Angel watching over us, maybe your grandpa is yours and he pops up when you least expect it just making sure your ok...............
